COMEDK · Chemistry · 1. Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry

\(100 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(\frac{N}{5} \mathrm{HCl}\) was added to \(1 \mathrm{~g}\) of pure \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\). What would remain after the reaction?

  1. A \(0.5 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\)
  2. B Neither \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\) nor \(\mathrm{HCl}\)
  3. C \(50 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(\mathrm{HCl}\)
  4. D \(25 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(\mathrm{HCl}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Neither \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\) nor \(\mathrm{HCl}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of moles of \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}=\frac{W}{M}=\frac{1}{100}\) \(=0.01 \mathrm{~mol}\) \(\therefore\) Molar mass of \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}=100 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) \(100 \mathrm{~mL}\) of…
