(i) Which of the two curves represents the reaction of 2M concentrated HCl with powdered calcium carbonate. Give a reason.
(ii) Why do the two curves flatten at the same level of production of CO2.

(i) - P
- It reacts with the carbonate faster and the reaction ends earlier.
(ii) The same quantities of reactants have been used hence total volume of gas evolved is the same.
