Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Determine the Moles of Calcium Carbonate Required
First, calculate the number of moles of calcium carbonate (\(\text{CaCO}_3\)) needed to produce 1.00 g of \(\text{CaCO}_3\).
The stoichiometry shows that 1 mole of \(\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3\) produces 1 mole of \(\text{CaCO}_3\). Therefore, the moles of \(\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3\) needed are the same as the moles of \(\text{CaCO}_3\).
\[
\text{Moles of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = 0.009991 \, \text{mol}
\]
Step 3: Calculate the Volume of Sodium Carbonate Solution Required
Given the concentration of the \(\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3\) solution is 0.100 M, use the formula for molarity to find the volume:
\[
\text{Molarity} = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of solution in liters}}
\]
Rearranging to find the volume:
\[
\text{Volume in liters} = \frac{\text{moles of Na}_2\text{CO}_3}{\text{Molarity}} = \frac{0.009991 \, \text{mol}}{0.100 \, \text{mol/L}} = 0.09991 \, \text{L}
\]
