7-11. Limestone consists mainly of the mineral calcite, CaCO3. The carbonate content of 0.541 3 g of powdered limestone was measured by suspending the powder in water, adding 10.00 mL of 1.396 M HCl, and heating to dissolve the solid and expel CO2: CACO3 (s) +2H* → Ca²+ +CO,↑ +H2O Calcium carbonate FM 100.086 The excess acid required 39.96 mL of 0.100 4 M NaOH for complete titration to a phenolphthalein end point. Find the weight percent of calcite in the limestone.
