<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

When the concentration of a substance differs from one area to another, this creates a concentration.
bija089 [108]

The difference in the concentration of a substance between two areas is called the concentration gradient. When a region has a higher particle concentration than another, this is known as a concentration gradient. A concentration gradient will cause particles in passive transport to diffuse down it from higher concentration to lower concentration until they are evenly spaced.

The gradual separation of a region of high density from a region of low density in a solution in terms of the concentration of a dissolved material. Understanding how ions and particles flow randomly in a solution or gas depends on the concentration gradient.
