Detailed Solution

 Using the formula: moles=given massmolecular mass

Molecular weight of calcium carbonate is 100 (Ca=40, C=12, O=16)

Moles of calcium carbonate will be = 10100=0.1mole= 0.1 g atom.

Since 1mole = 6.022×1023 atoms

Therefore 0.1mole= 6.022×1022atoms of calcium

Hence the correct option is (C).
