When heated, calcium carbonate decomposes to yield calcium oxide and carbon dioxide gas via the reaction

CaCO3(s)→CaO(s)+CO2(g)

What is the mass of calcium carbonate needed to produce 31.0 L of carbon dioxide at STP?

the formula mass of a molecule or a compound is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula

(that's what i know about formula mass)

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
