    In a lime kiln, to get higher yield of \[C{{O}_{2}}\], the measure that can be taken is :

    A)  to remove CaO

    B)  to add more \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\]

    C)  to maintain high temperature

    D)  to pump out \[C{{O}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[CaC{{O}_{3}}(s)CaO(s)+C{{O}_{2}}(g)\] The equilibrium constant for this reaction is given by \[K=[C{{O}_{2}}]\] (as \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] and \[CaO\] are solid) Hence, to get more \[C{{O}_{2}}\], we need to pump out continuously the \[C{{O}_{2}}\] gas.
