The balanced equation above will be;
2 KClO3 = 2 KCl +  3 O2 
Therefore, the coefficients are; 2,2,3
Which means 2 KClO3 will create 2 KCl and 3 oxygen molecules.

From the balanced equation 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, the coefficients are the following:
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chloride KCl 
coefficient 3 in front of oxygen molecule O2

We got this balanced equation by identifying the number of atoms of each element that we have in the given equation KClO3 → KCl + O2.
Looking at the subscripts of each atom on the reactant side and on the product side, we have
     KClO3 → KCl + O2
       K=1          K=1
       Cl=1         Cl=1
       O=3          O=2

We can see that the oxygens are not balanced. We add a coefficient 2 to the 3 oxygen atoms on the left side and another coefficient 3 to the 2 oxygen 
atoms on the right side to balance the oxygens:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
The coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3 multiplied by the subscript 3 of the oxygen atoms on the left side indicates 6 oxygen atoms just as the coefficient 3 multiplied by the subscript 2 on the right side indicates 6 oxygen atoms.

The number of potassium K atoms and chloride Cl atoms have changed as well:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
       K=2            K=1
       Cl=2          Cl=1
       O=6           O=6

We now have two potassium K atoms and two chloride Cl atoms on the reactant side, so we add a coefficient 2 to the potassium chloride KCl on the product side: 
     2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, which is our final balanced equation.
        K=2           K=2
        Cl=2          Cl=2
        O=6           O=6
The potassium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms are now balanced.

1. During an oceanic plate convergence, the plate will sink
Lorico [155]

Answer:

1. denser

2. subduction

3. divergence

4. hot spots

5. earthquakes

6. An underwater hot-spot volcano occasionally erupts, and the lava solidifies into an island. However, the plate that lies above the hot spot continues to move due to slab pull and ridge push, so the stationary volcano will be in a different location when it erupts again. This forms a new island, and the process may continue.
