In a commercial laboratory, the acid in sulfuric acid waste can be readily neutralized using finely ground limestone chips. The reaction is:
H2SO4(aq) + CaCO3(s) H2O(l) + CO2(g) + CaSO4(s)
A large bath holds 1.00 × 104 liters of solution, which is enough to fill 50 of the 2.00×102 liter drums. The acid content of the "neutralized"bath was determined to be 1.50 M in H2SO4. How many metric tons (1 metric ton = 1.000 × 103 kg) of CaCO3 would be the minimum amount to neutralize the acid in this bath?
A) 0.750 metric tons
B) 1.02 metric tons
C) 1.50 metric tons
D) 2.04 metric tons
E) 3.54 metric tons
