The moles of oxygen produced is calculated as follows
write a balanced reacting equation, that is
Mg(ClO3)2 ---->MgCl2 + 3O2
from the equation above the reacting ratio of Mg(ClO3)2 to O2 is 1: 3 therefore the moles of O2 produced = 5.12 moles x3 =15.36 moles
The sand provides a rough surface on top of the ice for the cars' tires to grip onto. It provides more friction. Salt melts the ice and often provides more friction (the disadvantage is that it eats concrete!).
.8 grams of phosphorus are recommended.
Particles in solids are always vibrating (moving back and forth) in place. The vibrational motion of particles in solids is kinetic energy. Heat makes the particles in a solid vibrate faster, giving them more kinetic energy. ... When a sample of solid, liquid, or gas matter heats up, it expands.
