7) Tums is a popular remedy for acid indigestion. A typical Tums tablet contains calcium
carbonate plus some inert substances. When ingested, it reacts with the gastric juice
(hydrochloric acid) in the stomach to give off carbon dioxide gas. When 1.328-g tablet reacted
with 40.00 mL of hydrochloric acid (density: 1.140 g/mL), carbon dioxide gas was given off and
the resulting solution weighed 46.699 g. Calculate the number of liters of carbon dioxide gas
released if its density is 1.81 g/L.

(Assume that there is no change in volume when the pure compounds are mixed.) The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/cm³ and that of water is 0.998 g/cm³. Percentage of ethanol = b. Alcoholic beverages are rated in proof, which is a measure of the relative amount of ethanol in the beverage. Pure ethanol is exactly 200 proof, a solution that is 50% ethanol by volume is exactly 100 proof.
