An evacuated 10.0 L container at 298 K is heated with solid calcium carbonate. The decomposition of \(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\) produces \(\mathrm{CO_2}\), raising the pressure inside the container to 0.80 atm. The \(\mathrm{CO_2}\) is then allowed to react with excess magnesium metal according to \(\mathrm{CO_2 + 2\,Mg \rightarrow 2\,MgO + C}\). If 2.00 g of \(\mathrm{MgO}\) is obtained, calculate the mass of \(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\) that was originally present.

A. 3.12 g
B. 2.05 g
Correct Answer C. 2.48 g
D. 1.90 g
