How many grams of copper oxide is formed during the decomposition of copper hydroxide2,

How many grams of copper oxide is formed during the decomposition of copper hydroxide2, weighing 20 grams, if the mass fraction of the output is 85%

Ca (OH) 2 = CaO + H2O

n = m (practical) / m (theoretical) * 100%, therefore m (practical) = m (theoretical) * n / 100%.

n (Ca (OH) 2) = m / M = 20 / (40 + 1 * 2 + 16 * 2) = 20/74 = 0.27 mol.

n (CaO) = 0.27 mol, because ratio of ratios 1: 1.

m (theory) (CaO) = 0.27 * (40 + 16) = 15.12 gr.

m (practical) = 15.12 * 0.85 = 12.85 gr.
