12.) A 2.00g sample of limestone was dissolved in
hydrochloric acid and all the calcium present in the
sample was converted to Ca²+,
oxalate solution, (NH,),C,O(aqo), was added to the
solution to precipitate the calcium ions as calcium
oxalate, CaC,O4(s). The precipitate was filtered, dried
and weighed to a constant mass of 2.43g. Determine
the percentage by mass of calcium in the limestone
sample.
