1 mole 2 moles 1mole 1 mole 1 mole
The moles are from the reaction, find the moles from the reaction to determine the limiting agent mass of CaCO3 = 17.00g
Number of moles of CaCO3 = (17.00g) (88.075g/mole) = 0.193 mole)
Number of moles of HCl = (68.85g) (36.45g/mole) = 1.889 mole
From calculations, (moles of HCl) (moles of CaCO3) = 1.889/0.193 = 10/1
From the reaction, the number of 1 mole of CaCO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2
From calculations, the number of 0.193 moles of CaCO3 must produce 0.193 moles of CO2
Mass of CO2 = (molecular massCO2)(moles of CO2)
= 8.49 g

Although part of your question is missing, you might be referring to this full question:
You carefully weigh out 17.00 g of CaCO3 powder and add it to 68.85 g of HCl solution. You notice bubbles as a reaction takes place. You then weigh the resulting solution and find that it has a mass of 78.88 g. The relevant equation is
CaCO3(s)+2HCl(aq)→H2O(l)+CO2(g)+CaCl2(aq)
Assuming no other reactions take place, what mass of CO2 was produced in this reaction?
