Grade 11Physical ChemistryAn impure sample of CaCO3 ( calcium carbonate ) contains 38% of Ca . The percentage of impurity present in the sample is ? Jatin yadav 9 Years agoGrade 11
Jatin yadav9 Years ago100 % pure CaCO3 should contain 40 % of Ca ... But it contains 38 % ..therefore ,Percentage purity = 38/40 x 100 = 95 % ..Impurity = 5 %
Sumedh Meshram6 Years agoMolecular Weight(CaCO3) - 40+12+48=100gmCa%=40÷100 ×100 =40%%Impurity=2/100÷40/100×100 =2/40×100 =5%The percentage impurity is 5%.
