Dolomite is a mineral consisting of calcium carbonate caco3


Dolomite is a mineral consisting of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and magnesium carbonate (MgCO3). When dolomite is strongly heated, its carbonates decompose to their oxides (CaO and MgO) and carbon dioxide is expelled. When a106g sample of dolomite was strongly heated, a residue of mass56.1g remained.

What is the balanced equation for the decomposition of calcium carbonate?

What is the balanced equation for the decomposition of magnesium carbonate?

What is the mass of CaCO3 in the original sample?

What is the mass of MgCO3 in the original sample?

What is the percentage of CaCO3 in the original sample?

What is the percentage of MgCO3 in the original sample?
