Which of the following is true about finding the molar mass of potassium sulfate, K₂SO4? A. The molar mass is found by adding the molar mass of potassium (K) to the molar mass of sulfate (SO4). B. The molar mass is found by using Avogadro's number divided by 22.4. C. The molar mass is found by taking 2x the molar mass of potassium (K) plus 1x the molar mass of sulfur (S) plus 4x the molar mass of oxygen (O). D. The molar mass of potassium sulfate is a number between 1 and 10.

Calcium carbonate forms carbon dioxide and calcium oxide when it is heated above 900 °C in a limekiln. When heated to 1000 °C in a laboratory, 4.31 g calcium carbonate produces 2.40 g calcium oxide and 1.90 g carbon dioxide. Outline a method similar to combustion analysis by which you could determine the empirical formula for calcium carbonate from these data. Carry out the determination.
