The balanced reaction is 2KClO3 --> 2KCl + 3O2
We first divide the 400.0 g KClO3 by the molar mass of 122.55 g/mol to get 3.26 mol KClO3. Next, we use the coefficients: 3.26 mol KClO3 * (3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3) = 4.896 mol O2. Multiplying this by the molar mass of 32 g/mol gives 156.67 g O2.
Percent yield = 115.0 g / 156.67 g = 0.734 = 73.40%

A gas that exerts a pressure of 537 torr in a container with a volume of 5.30 L will exert a pressure of 255 torr when transferr
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:- The gas needs to be transferred to a container with a volume of 11.2 L.

Solution:- From Boyle's law. "At constant temperature, Volume is inversely proportional to the pressure."

It means, the volume is decreased if the pressure is increased and vice versa.

Here, the Pressure is decreasing from 537 torr to 255 torr. So, the volume must increase and calculated by using the equation:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Where, P_1 is initial pressure and P_2 is final pressure. Similarly, V_1 is initial volume and V_2 is final volume.

Let's plug in the values in the equation:

(537 torr)(5.30 L) = (255 torr)(V_2)

V_2=(\frac{537 torr*5.30 L}{255 torr})

V_2 = 11.2 L

So, the new volume of the container needs to be 11.2 L.

What is the correct definition of energy?
scoray [572]

Answer:

The ability to do work

Explanation:

  • Energy refers to the ability to carry out work.
  • It is measured in Joules (J).
  • Energy may exist in different forms such as potential energy when a body is at rest, kinetic energy when the body is in motion, etc.
  • Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, however, it can be transformed from one form to another. For example, chemical energy may be transformed into mechanical energy or other forms of energy.

Which electron configuration represents the electrons of an atom in an excited state? * 2-3 2-7-1 2-8 2-8-1​
Lemur [1.5K]

2-7-1

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy  

Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy  

So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:  

Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.  

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level  

The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward  

2-7-1

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell

the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)

\tt  1s^22s^22p^4\rightarrow ground~state\\\\1s^22s^22p^33s^1\rightarrow excited~state
