Balanced chemical reaction: 2K(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 2KOH(aq) + H₂(g).

KOH is inorganic compound p<span>otassium hydroxide, a strong base.
H</span>₂ is hydrogen gas.
In balanced chemical reaction number of atoms on both side of chemical reaction must be same. There are two potassium atoms, four hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms on both side of reaction.

Express in scientific notation. Make sure your answer has the same number of significant figures as the starting value. (6.0 x 1
Greeley [361]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The expression (6.0 x 104) (3.1 x 10-1) is equal to 1.9 x 10^4. We only have two significant figures from the starting expression that is why we rounded of the product from 1.86 to 1.9.

What will be the new volume if 125 mL of He gas at 100 degree Celsius and .979 atm is cooled to 26 degree Celsius and the pressu
ycow [4]
Use Boyle's Law of Pressure: P1 x V1 = P2 x V2. Givens: P1=0.9 atm V1=                4 P2= 0.9 atm Find: V2 Equation: 0.9 atm x 4 x 4 L = 0.20 atm x V2Solve: 36 atmL= 0.20 atm x V2 18 : = V2 Short answer: The new volume is 104 ml.

If 125g of KClO3 is heated, what is the total mass of the products?​
Andrej [43]

Given parameters:

Mass of KClO₃  = 125g

Unknown:

Total mass of the products = ?

When  KClO₃ is heated, it thermally decomposes to KCl and O₂ according to the chemical equation below;

               2KClO₃  →  2KCl + 3O₂

All chemical equations obeys the law of conservation of matter and with this regard, we know that the amount of reactants used is the same as that of the product.

The total mass of the products must give us 125g according to this law of conservation of matter.

Now to find the masses of each product,

  1. Find the number of moles of the given reactant:

     Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

  molar mass of  KClO₃  = 39 + 35.5 + 3(16)  = 122.5g/mol

    So number of moles of KClO₃ = \frac{125}{122.5}  = 1.02moles

    2. Now, using this number of moles, find the number of moles of the products using this value;

   2 moles of KClO₃ produced 2 moles of KCl

  1.02 moles of KClO₃ will also produce 1.02moles of KCl

   2 moles of KClO₃ produced 3 moles of O₂

   1.02 moles of KClO₃ will produce   \frac{1.02 x 3} {2} mole = 1.53 moles of O₂

   3. Now find the masses of each product;

Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

  molar mass of KCl  = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5g/mol

  molar mass of O₂  = 16 x 2  = 32g/mol

  Mass of KCl  = 74.5 x 1.02  = 75.99g

  Mass of O₂  = 32 x 1.53 = 48.96g

Total mass of products = mass of KCl + Mass of O₂ = 75.99g + 48.96g

                                        = 124.95g

This value is approximately the same as that of mass of  KClO₃
