A sample of limestone weighing 1.005 grams is dissolved in 75.00 mL of 0.250 M hydrochloric acid. The following reaction occurs: CaCO3(s) + 2 H (aq) = Ca2+(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l) It is found that 19.26 mL of 0.150 M NaOH is required to titrate the excess HCl left after the reaction with the limestone. What is the mass percent of CaCO3 in the limestone?
