Can you help me with the following calculation? I need to convert 88.4 kt CO2 into equivalent tons of CaCO3, I would greatly appreciate your help.

1 CO2 correspond to 1 CaCO3

So calculate the mole of the CO2 by n = m/M use M = 44 g/mol

Then calculate back the mass of CaCO3 m = n*M use M = 100 g/mol

So what do you get.
