Answer:

C6H12O6.

Explanation:

Adding up the relative atomic masses of the elements

C + 2H + O

= 12 + 2*1 + 16.

= 30.

180 / 30 = 6  so the molecular formula is:

C6H12O6.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

                     Mass = 15.20 g of KCl

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of KClO₃ is as follow;

                                            2 KClO₃ = 2 KCl + 3 O₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of KClO₃ as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 25.0 g / 122.55 g/mol

Moles = 0.204 moles

Step 2: Find moles of KCl as;

According to equation,

                  2 moles of KClO₃ produces  =  2 moles of KCl

So,

               0.204 moles of KClO₃ will produce  =  X moles of KCl

Solving for X,

                       X = 2 mol × 0.204 mol / 2 mol

                       X = 0.204 mol of KCl

Step 3: Calculate mass of KCl as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.204 mol × 74.55 g/mol

Mass = 15.20 g of KCl
