Solution

When calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl), the products of the reaction are carbon dioxide (CO₂), water (H₂O), and calcium chloride (CaCl₂). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:

CaCO3(s)+2HCl(aq)CaCl2(aq)+CO2(g)+H2O(l) \text{CaCO}_3 (s) + 2 \text{HCl} (aq) \rightarrow \text{CaCl}_2 (aq) + \text{CO}_2 (g) + \text{H}_2O (l)

Summary of Products:

  1. Calcium chloride (CaCl₂)
  2. Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
  3. Water (H₂O)

Thus, the main products produced are calcium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water.
