Answer:
John Dalton's Atomic Model Below ⬇
Explanation:
This problem applies Hess' Law to come up with the final reaction from a series of reactions given. Equation (1) stays as it is. Equation (2) should be inverted and divided by 2. Equation (3) is simply divided by 2. The energies should also correspond to the operations. Adding the net energies of each reaction, the total energy is 155.65 kJ. Hence, the answer is A.
Mass O2 = = 16.832 g
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
43 grams of potassium chlorate
Required
Mass of O2
Solution
Reaction
2KClO3 ⇒3O2 + 2KCl
Mol KClO3 :
= mass : MW
= 43 g : 122,55 g/mol
= 0.3509
From the equation, mol O2 :
= 3/2 x moles KClO3
= 3/2 x 0.3509
= 0.526
Mass O2 :
= 0.526 x 32 g/mol
= 16.832 g
