The pollutant sulfur dioxide, SO2\text{SO}_2, can be removed from the air by the following chemical reaction: 2CaCO3(s)+2SO2(g)+O2(g)→2CaSO4(s)+2CO2(g)2\text{CaCO}_3(\text{s}) + 2\text{SO}_2(\text{g}) + \text{O}_2(\text{g}) \rightarrow 2\text{CaSO}_4(\text{s}) + 2\text{CO}_2(\text{g}) Determine the mass of calcium carbonate needed to remove 10.00 g of sulfur dioxide.
