Question

Consider a combustion reaction of calcium metal to form the product, calcium oxide:

calcium(s) + oxygen(g) ---> calcium oxide(s)   

   Conduct a data analysis:

  • mass of an empty crucible: 38.500 g
  • mass of crucible + calcium metal : 38.750 g

   After the combustion reaction

  • mass of crucible + product: 38.850 

A) Find the mass of a sample of calcium metal used in this reaction:  ________ g Ca

B) Find the mass of the product that forms in this reaction: _______ g product (= calcium oxide)

C)  Determine the empirical formula of the product, calcium oxide.
