Answer:

Oxygen gas

Explanation:

Potassium chlorate KClO3 decomposes thermally to form potassium chloride KCl and oxygen gas is given off. This is in the presence of a catalyst, manganese iv oxide.

Hence, what is being said in essence is that when potassium chloride is heated in the presence of manganese iv oxide catalyst, oxygen is given off as the gaseous product with the formation of potassium chloride.

The chemical equation for the reaction is :

2KClO3 ——-> 2KCl + 3O2

This procedure is one of most important ways through which oxygen can be produced in the laboratory and can be used as a source of oxygen is industrial processes if on a large scale

What is the molecular formula of each compound?<br> (c) Empirical formula HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol)
beks73 [17]

The molecular formula of HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol) is Hg2Cl4.

The molecular formula is an expression that defines the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound. It shows the actual number of each atom in a molecule.

<h3>Molecular formula: What is it?</h3>

A chemical formula is a way to communicate information in chemistry about the proportions of atoms that make up a specific chemical compound or molecule. Chemical element symbols, numbers, and occasionally other symbols like parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas, and plus and minus signs are used to represent the chemical elements.

A molecule's molecular formula reveals which atoms and how many of each kind are included within it. No subscript is used if there is just one atom of a certain kind. A subscript is added to the symbol for an atom if it contains two or more of a certain type of atom.

<span>This example represents the challenge of survival of the fittest. In this situation, the trees have a distinct advantage due to their above average height. This puts them in the best position to gain the resources that they need to survive, most notably, the sun. The smaller plants, however, do not have this advantage, and lose out to the trees.</span>

Cl2 + 2OH− → Cl− + ClO− + H2O
Nataly_w [17]
Cl2(g) -------> Cl-(aq) + ClO-(aq) 

2e- + Cl2(g) -------> 2Cl-(aq) [reduction] 

4OH-(aq) + Cl2(g) -----------> 2ClO-(aq) + 2H2O(l) + 2e- [oxidation] 
______________________________________... 
2OH-(aq) + Cl2(g) --------> Cl-(aq) + ClO-(aq) + H2O(l)
