Answer:

12.9 g O₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of oxygen gas produced, you need to (1) convert grams KClO₃ to moles KClO₃ (via molar mass from periodic table values), then (2) convert moles KClO₃ to moles O₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles O₂ to grams O₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the given value (33.0 g).

Molar Mass (KClO₃): 39.098 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol + 3(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (KClO₃): 122.542 g/mol

2 KClO₃ ---> 2 KCl + 3 O₂

Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol

33.0 g KClO₃           1 mole                 3 moles O₂            31.996 g
--------------------  x  -------------------  x  -----------------------  x  ------------------  =
                               122.542 g          2 moles KClO₃            1 mole

=  12.9 g O₂

Why is it better to conduct an experiment more than once?
lilavasa [31]

The first reason to repeat experiments is simply to verify results. Different science disciplines have different criteria for determining what good results are. Biological assays, for example must be done in at least triplicate to generate acceptable data. Science is built on the assumption that published experimental protocols are repeatable.


2)      The next reason to repeat experiments is to develop skills necessary to extend established methods and develop new experiments. “Practice make perfect” is true for the concert hall and the chemical laboratory.


3)      Refining experimental observations is another reason to repeat. Maybe you did not follow the progress of the reaction like you should have.


4)      Another reason to repeat experiments is to study and/or improve them in way. In the synthetic chemistry laboratory, for example, there is always a desire to improve the yield of a synthetic step. Will certain changes in the experimental conditions lead to a better yield? The only way to find out is to try it! The scientific method informs us that it is best to only make one change at a time.


5)  The final reason to repeat an extraction, chromatographic or synthetic protocol is to produce more of your target substance. This is sometimes referred to scale-up.

Why does earth look blue from space
Julli [10]

Answer:

Earth is the only planet in our solar system that has a large amount of liquid water. About 74% of the surface of Earth is covered by liquid or frozen water. Because of this, people sometimes call it the blue planet. Because of its water, Earth is home to millions of species of plants and animals.

Explanation:

Earth is the only planet in our solar system that has a massive quantity of liquid water. About 74% of the surface of Earth is covered with the aid of liquid or frozen water. Because of this, people on occasion name it the blue planet. Because of its water, Earth is domestic to thousands and thousands of species of flora and animals.
