<em><u>0.6645</u></em> moles of oxygen O₂  form when 54.3 g solid potassium chlorate KClO₃ completely decomposes

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Stoichiometry in Chemistry learn about chemicals mainly emphasizes quantitative, such as the calculation of volume, mass, number, which is related to numbers, molecules, elements, etc.

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

In the reaction there are also manifestations of reagent substances namely gas (g), liquid (liquid / l), solid (solid / s) and solution (aqueous / aq).

Reactions that occur:

2KClO₃ ⇒ 2KCl + 3O₂

We determine the KClO₃ mole to determine the O₂ mole

M KClO₃ = 1. K + 1. Cl + 3. O

M KClO₃ = 1. 39 + 1. 35.5 + 3. 16

M KClO₃ = 39 + 35.5 + 48

M KClO₃ = 122.5

\displaystyle mole\:KClO_3=\frac{mass}{molar\:mass}

\displaystyle mole=\frac{54.3}{122.5}=0.443\:mole

From the reaction equation, the mole ratio

KClO₃ : O₂  = 2 : 3

then :

\displaystyle mole\:O_2=\frac{3}{2}\times 0.443\\\\mole\:O_2=\boxed{\bold{0.6645}}

Answer:

  • <u>0.665 mol of O₂.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Molecular chemical equation:</u>

  • 2 KClO₃(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O₂(g)

<u>2. Mole ratios:</u>

  • 2 mol KClO₃ : 2 mol KCl : 3 mol O₂

<u>3. Number of moles of KClO₃</u>

  • Number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

  • Molar mass of KClO₃ = 122.55 g/mol

  • Number of moles of KClO₃ = 54.3 g / 122.5 g/mol ≈ 0.44308 mol

<u>3. Number of moles of O₂</u>

As per the theoretical mole ratio 2 mol of KClO₃ produce 3 mol of O₂, then set up a proportion to determine how many  moles of O₂ will be produced from 0.44038 mol of KClO₃.

  • 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol KClO₃ = x / 0.44038 mol KClO₃

  • x = (3 / 2) × 0.44308 mol O₂ = 0.6646 mol O₂

Round to 3 significant figures: 0.665 mol of O₂ ← answer

How could you safely determine if a base is stronger than an acid?
just olya [345]
Since tasting or touching the texture or surface could be deemed unsafe. It would be best to use a pH meter or litmus paper. pH meter will accurately determine pH. Litmus paper if red will be acidic and basic if blue. You can also perform conductivity test. Else, you can also perform hydrogen test.

PLEASE HELP <br> What is the pH of a weak acid solution that has an [H+] of 2.1 × 10^–6 M
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

pH ( potential Hydrogen ) is a negative logarithm of molar concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH =  -  log[H {}^{ + } ]

therefore:

pH =  -   log(2.1 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )  \\ { \boxed{pH = 5.68}}
