Limestone (CaCO $_{3}$ ) is decomposed by heating to quicklime (CaO) and carbon dioxide. Calculate how many grams of quicklime can be produced from $1.0 \mathrm{kg}$ of limestone.
In the reaction, CaCO3(s) ⟶ CaO(s) + CO2(g) how many liters of carbon dioxide, CO2, measured at STP, would be produced from the decomposition of 135 g of calcium carbonate, CaCO3?

When solid calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is heated, it decomposes to form solid calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide gas (CO2). How many liters of carbon dioxide will be produced at STP if 2380 g of calcium carbonate reacts completely? CaCO3 (s) CaO (s) + CO2 (g)
