    The balanced chemical reaction for the thermal decomposition of calcium sulfate is: 2CaSO4 - > 2CaO + 2 SO2 + O2. The following information should also be noted:

    Molar mass of CaSO4: 136.14 g/mol

    Molar mass of SO2: 64.066 g/mol

    Using stoichiometry to determine the amount of calcium sulfate that will be produced from each metric ton of SO2 trapped, the resulting equation is: (136.14/64.066) (2/2). Thus, the amount of calcium sulfate to be produced is theoretically equal to 2.12 metric tons.
