Question:

A 26.4 g sample of a mixture of NaOH and CaO contains 40.0% CaO. When the sample is treated with aqueous HCl, the following reactions occur: 

NaOH(s) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

CaO(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → CaCl2(aq) + H2O(l)

All of the mixture reacts, and no HCl is left over. The resulting solution is evaporated to dryness. What is the mass (in grams) of solid obtained?
