If the standard enthalpy of formation for CaCO3 is -1207.6 kJ mol when 30.7 g of calcium is reacted with an excess of carbon dioxide, how much heat is transferred? Would it be an exothermic reaction that releases 370.4 kJ of heat?

We have data for the reaction...
Explanation:
Why? Because, by definition,
Here I PRESUME you have performed the reaction....
…(this is not quite your proposal...I think you mean calcium oxide not calcium metal)… BUT HERE you gots NO DATA!
Anyway, you will have to refine this question....
