    180.845 mol

    Explanation:

    Molar mass of Ca: 40,078 g/mol

    Molar mass of C: 12,0107 g/mol

    Molar mass of O: 15,999 g/mol

    Molar mass of CaCO3: (40,078+12,0107+3*15,999) 100,0857 g/mol

    The number of moles = mass of bag in g : molar mass of CaCO3

    ⇒ n = (18.1*1000) : 100,0857 = 180.845 mol
