Hope this helped.

Explanation:

Cellulose is a molecule, consisting of hundreds – and sometimes even thousands – of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Cellulose is the main substance in the walls of plant cells, helping plants to remain stiff and upright. Humans cannot digest cellulose, but it is important in the diet as fibre.

If your end product is 200.0 g KMnO4 how much KOH did you start with?

aniked [119]

Answer:

$m_{KOH}= 142.0gKOH$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the following chemical reaction we found on goo gle as it was not given:

$2MnO_2+4KOH+O_2\rightarrow 2KMnO4+2KOH+H_2$

Whereas we can see a 2:4 mole ratio of potassium permanganate product to potassium hydroxide reactant with molar masses of 158.03 g/mol and 54.11 g/mol respectively. In such a way, by developing the following stoichiometric setup, we obtain the mass of KOH to start with:

$m_{KOH}=200.0gKMnO_4*\frac{1molKMnO_4}{158.03gKMnO_4}*\frac{4molKOH}{2molKMnO_4} *\frac{56.11gKOH}{1molKOH}\\\\m_{KOH}= 142.0gKOH$

Best regards!
