Answer:

4.5moles

Explanation:

First, let us balance the equation given from the question. This is illustrated below:

KClO3 —> KCl + O2

There are 2 atoms of O on the right side and 3 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of KClO3 and 3 in of O2 as shown below

2KClO3 —> KCl + 3O2

Now, we have 2 atoms each of K and Cl on the left side and 1atom each of K and Cl on the right. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of KCl as shown below:

2KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

Now the equation is balanced.

From the balanced equation,

2 moles of KClO3 produced 3 moles of O2.

Therefore, 3 moles of KClO3 will produce = (3 x 3) /2 = 4.5moles of O2.

Therefore 3 moles of KClO3 will produce 4.5 moles of O2

A 0.4647-g sample of a compound known to contain only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen was burned in oxygen to yield 0.01962 mol of

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The essence including its given problem is outlined in the following segment on the context..

Explanation:

The given values are:

Moles of CO₂,

x = 0.01962

Moles of water,

$\frac{y}{2} =0.01961$

$y=2\times 0.01961$

$=0.03922$

Compound's mass,

= 0.4647 g

Let the compound's formula will be:

$C_{x}H_{y}O_{z}$

Combustion's general equation will be:

⇒ $C_{x}H_{y}O_{z}+x+(\frac{y}{4}-\frac{z}{2}) O_{2}=xCO_{2}+\frac{y}{2H_{2}O}$

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒ $12\times x=1\times y+16\times z=0.4647$

⇒ $12\times 0.01962+1\times 0.03922+16\times z=0.4647$

⇒ $0.27466+16z=0.4647$

⇒ $z=0.01187$

Now,

x : y : z = $0.01962:0.03922:0.01187$

= $\frac{0.01962}{0.0118}:\frac{0.03922}{0.0188}:\frac{0.0188}{0.0188}$

= $1.6:3.3:1.0$

= $3:6:2$

So that the empirical formula seems to be "C₃H₆O₂".

Many repeating, simple subunits are joined together. What is the most likely

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

O a polymer

Explanation:

When many repeating simple subunits are joined together, this results into a polymer.

The simplest unit or smallest unit of any substance is called a monomer. When many units of a monomer joins together, a polymer results.

For proteins, the monomeric unit is amino-acid.
When they combine they form longer chain molecules called proteins.
For carbohydrates, the monomeric unit is called glucose.
When they are combined they give us a wide range of carbohydrate molecules.

Sometimes in lab we collect the gas formed by a chemical reaction over water (see sketch at right). This makes it easy to isolat

ad-work [718]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.00582 grams.

Explanation:

In order to solve the question, let us consider the vapor pressure of H2O, as hydrogen gas is collected over water, therefore, we have to consider the vapor pressure of water in the given case. Let us assume that the pressure is 760 torr or 1 atm.

It is known that the vapor pressure of water at 40 degree C is 53.365 torr (Based on the data).

Therefore, the pressure of H2 will be,

P = 760-55.365 = 704.635 torr or 704.635/760 = 0.9272 atm

The volume of the hydrogen gas collected in the tube is 80 ml or 0.08 L

Temperature in Kelvin will be 40+273 = 313 K

To calculate the moles of hydrogen (H2) gas, there is a need to use the ideal gas equation, that is, PV= nRT, in this R is the gas constant, whose value is 0.0821 L atm/molK, and n is the moles of the gas.

By inserting the values in the equation we get:

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT = 0.9272 *0.08 / 0.0821 * 313

n = 0.00289 moles

The mass of H2 will be moles * molar mass = 0.00289 * 2.016

= 0.00582 grams.

According to Pascal's principle, how does pressure from a hand squeezing a ketchup bottle move throughout the ketchup?

Pepsi [2]

- According to Pascal’s principle, for a certain fluid in a totally enclosed system, a change in pressure at a given point in the fluid is transferred to all points in the fluid, as well as to the enclosing walls.

- This is illustrated by the fact that the pressure inside an enclosed system is the same according to the relation [ pressure = force/area ]. Therefore, the change in pressure resulting from squeezing a ketchup bottle will be transferred equally to all parts of that bottle as well as its internal content.

- That’s how hydraulic machines, such as garbage trucks and hydraulic lifts function..
