Question 11
F

Calcium carbonate reacts with ethanoic acid, CH3COOH\mathrm{CH_{3}COOH}CH3​COOH. The salt made is calcium ethanoate, (CH3COO)2Ca\mathrm{(CH_{3}COO)_{2}Ca}(CH3​COO)2​Ca.

What is the balanced symbol equation for this reaction?

[1]
A

CaCO3+CH3COOH→(CH3COO)2Ca+H2O+CO2\mathrm{CaCO_{3} + CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow (CH_{3}COO)_{2}Ca + H_{2}O + CO_{2}}CaCO3​+CH3​COOH→(CH3​COO)2​Ca+H2​O+CO2​

B

CaCO3+2CH3COOH→(CH3COO)2Ca+H2O+CO2\mathrm{CaCO_{3} + 2CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow (CH_{3}COO)_{2}Ca + H_{2}O + CO_{2}}CaCO3​+2CH3​COOH→(CH3​COO)2​Ca+H2​O+CO2​

C

CaCO3+2CH3COOH→(CH3COO)2Ca+H2+CO2\mathrm{CaCO_{3} + 2CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow (CH_{3}COO)_{2}Ca + H_{2} + CO_{2}}CaCO3​+2CH3​COOH→(CH3​COO)2​Ca+H2​+CO2​

D

CaCO3+2CH3COOH→(CH3COO)2Ca+2H2O+CO2\mathrm{CaCO_{3} + 2CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow (CH_{3}COO)_{2}Ca + 2H_{2}O + CO_{2}}CaCO3​+2CH3​COOH→(CH3​COO)2​Ca+2H2​O+CO2​
