Answer: P2O5
Explanation: You divide both subscripts by 2 to get the empirical formula.
Answer:
10.3 g of oxygen are formed when 26.4 g of potassium chlorate is heated
Explanation:
This is the balanced equation:
2KClO₃(s) → 2KCl(s) + 3O₂(g)
Ratio beteween the salt and oxygen is 2:3
Molar mass of KClO₃ = 122.55 g/m
Let's find out the moles of salt
Mass / Molar mass
26.4 g /122.55 g/m = 0.215 moles
So, this is the final rule of three:
If 2 moles of KClO₃ make 3 moles of oxygen
0.215 moles of KClO₃ make (0.215 .3) /2 = 0.323 moles of O₂ are produced
Molar mass O₂ = 32 g/m
Moles . molar mass = mass
0.323 m . 32g/m = 10.3 g

“Water” is the best thermal insulator.
Option: B
<u>Explanation</u>:
“Thermal insulators” are the materials which do not allow heat to transfer. “Water” is the substance which does not transfer heat. Hence, the “water” is the best “thermal insulator”. Water is the bad conductor of thermal heat. Water has “low thermal conductivity” than other substances, so this acts as an insulator as long as it is not traveled from one place to another. Heat is transferred when a “hot object collides” with “the cold objects”. The “thermal conductivity” of “water” is 0.6 W/m K.
Chemical reaction is the basis of life for living organisms; no organism can remain alive without the occurrence of chemical reactions.
Chemical reactions that occur in the living organisms are called biochemical reactions, these reactions are needed for the organism to grow, develop, survive and remain alive; when the chemical reactions stop the organism die.
For instance, to remain alive one has to eat. The food eaten can not be useful to the body if the digestive enzymes do not carry out chemical reactions on it and convert it to a form that can easily enter the blood where it is needed.
