#CaCO_3(s) stackrelDelta rarr CaO(s) + CO_2(g)uarr#

Explanation:

Calcium carbonate could undergo thermal decomposition....

And moles of calcium carbonate #=(39.0*g)/(100.09*g*mol^-1)=0.390*mol#..

And we would get equivalent quantities of calcium oxide, and carbon dioxide from the thermolysis....what are these masses?
