To calculate the molar mass of calcium carbonate  CaCO3 , we need to add the molar masses of each element present in the compound.Calcium  Ca : 1 atom  40.08 g/mol = 40.08 g/molCarbon  C : 1 atom  12.01 g/mol = 12.01 g/molOxygen  O : 3 atoms  16.00 g/mol = 48.00 g/molNow, add the molar masses of each element:40.08 g/mol  Ca  + 12.01 g/mol  C  + 48.00 g/mol  O  = 100.09 g/molThe molar mass of calcium carbonate  CaCO3  is approximately 100.09 g/mol.
