Question: H C l acid solution ( 1 5 % ) is used for an acidizing project to a carbonate reservoir ( Dolomite ) . The

HCl acid solution (15%) is used for an acidizing project to a carbonate reservoir
(Dolomite). The chemical reaction between the acid solution and the dolomite is
shown below. The available information is given below:
4HCl+CaMg(CO3)2CaCl2+MgCl2+2H2O+2CO2
