Question:
The Romans used calcium oxide, CaO, to produce a strong mortar to build stone structures. Calcium oxide was mixed with water to give Ca(OH)2, which reacted slowly with CO2 in the air to give CaCO3.
(a) Calculate the standard enthalpy change for this reaction.
(b) How much energy is evolved or absorbed as heat if 1.00 kg of Ca(OH)2 reacts with a stoichiometric amount of CO2?
