The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes:
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Then,
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The total ionic equation looks as follows:
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows:
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
To convert 78.1 g of water at 0° C to Ice at -57.1°C; we can do it in steps;
1. Water at 0°C to ice at 0°C
The heat of fusion of ice is 334 J/g;
Heat = 78.1 × 334 = 26085.4 Joules
2. Ice at 0°C to -57.1°C
Specific heat of ice is 2.108 J/g
Heat = 78.1 × 2.108 J/g = 164.6348 Joules
Thus the total heat energy released will be; 26085.4 + 164.6348
= 26250.0348 J or 26.250 kJ

Mn=Ar3d⁵4s²
note that Ar is argon
energy is required to move from one state or phase of matter to the next. Energy is used to make a liquid into a gas or a solid into a liquid.
