Calcium dihydrogen phosphate, Ca(H2PO4)2, and sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO3, are ingredients of baking powder that react with each other to produce CO2, which causes dough or batter to rise:

Ca(H2PO4)2(s) + NaHCO3(s)

CO2(g) + H2O(g) + CaHPO4(s) + Na2HPO4(s)[unbalanced]


If the baking powder contains 31.0% NaHCO3 and 35.0% Ca(H2PO4)2 by mass:

(a) How many moles of CO2 are produced from

1.23 g

of baking powder?

and (b) If 1 mol of CO2 occupies 37.0 L at 350°F (a typical baking temperature), what volume of CO2 is produced from

1.23 g

of baking powder?
