Question

one molecule of calcium oxide, cao, and one molecule of carbon dioxide, co₂, combine in a chemical reaction to form one substance. given that matter is neither created nor destroyed, which chemical formula identifies the product of this reaction? (1 point) caco₃ ca₂co₃ caco₂ ca₂o₃ item 1 item 2 item 3 item 4 item 5

Explanation:

Step1: Write the chemical reaction equation

$CaO + CO_2
ightarrow CaCO_3$

Step2: Analyze the products

In the reaction of calcium oxide ($CaO$) and carbon - dioxide ($CO_2$), the product is calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$).

Answer:

$CaCO_3$
