Estimate the amount of CO 2 produced per kilogram of CaCO 3 in the calcination reaction (9.10).

Question:

Estimate the amount of CO2 produced per kilogram of CaCO3 in the calcination reaction (9.10). In addition to the CO2 released in the reaction, include the CO2  emitted if coal is burned (at 100% efficiency) to supply the enthalpy of reaction and the energy necessary to heat the reactants to 890 C. You can assume that the heat capacity of CaCO3 is Ĉp ≅ 0.09 kJ/mol K, and assume that the coal is pure carbon so ΔHf = 0.
