When 0.200 mol of CaCO,(s) and 0.300 mol of CaO(s) are placed in an evacuated, sealed 10.0-L container and heated to 1039 K, PCO, = 0.220 atm after equilibrium is established. CACO,(s) = CaO(s) + CO,(g) Additional CO,(g) is pumped into the container to raise the pressure to 0.550 atm. After equilibrium is re-established, what is the total mass (in g) of CaCO, in the container?
