Calculate the mass percent of calcium in calcium carbonate. Report your answer to at least 3 significant figures. Hint: This calculation is theoretical, and is independent of the data provided. Another way to phrase the question would be: What percentage of the molar mass of CaCO3 is due to the Ca?

Answer:

40%

Explanation:

Molar  mass  of Ca = 40 gram/mol

Molar mass of C      =  12 gram/mol

Mass mass of O =  16 gram/mol

Molar mass of CaCO3 = [40 + 12 + (16 x3)]

                                     = 100 gram/mol

Mass % of Calcium = Ca/ CaCO3

                                =   40/100

                                = 40%
