Question
Type the correct answer in the box. The solubility of calcium carbonate is 14(milligrams)/(liter) This rate means that 14 milligrams of calcium carbonate can dissolve in 1 liter of water How much water would be required to fully dissolve 11 grams of calcium carbonate? Express your answer to the correct number of signific figures. One milligram is equal to 0.001 grams. It would take square liters of water to fully dissolve 11 grams of calcium carbonate.

# Explanation:## Step 1: Convert grams to milligrams### Since 1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams, multiply 11 grams by 1000 to convert to milligrams.## Step 2: Calculate the amount of water needed### Using the solubility given (14 mg/L), divide the total amount of calcium carbonate in milligrams by the solubility rate.# Answer:###
Here are the detailed steps:# Explanation:## Step 1: Convert grams to milligrams
### **Convert calcium carbonate mass from grams to milligrams**## Step 2: Calculate the amount of water needed
### **Divide the total mass by the solubility to get the required volume of water**# Answer:### 785.71 liters
