Detailed Solution

1 mole of calcium carbonate degrades to form 1 mole of calcium oxide along with carbon dioxide gas.

CaCO3CaO+CO2

100g of CaCO3=22.4L of CO2

xg of CaCO3=11.2L of CO2

And the number of moles of CaCO3=80/100

So, x×(80/100)×22.4=11.2×100 x=62.5g

Hence, 62.5 g of calcium carbonate is required here.
