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.

Describe solids,liquids, and gases interms of how they fill a container. Use your descriptions to identify the physical state (a
nadezda [96]

Explanation:

As it is known that in solids, molecules are held together because of strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are held together and have definite shape and volume.

Whereas in liquids, molecules are not held so strongly as they are in solids. Hence, they move from their initial position and they do not have definite shape but they have definite volume.

Liquids obtain the shape of container in which they are kept.

In gases, molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces. As a result, they move far apart from each other and occupy the space of a container or vessel in which they are placed.

The physical state (at room temperature) of the following are determined as follows:

(a)  Helium in a toy balloon : Helium at room temperature exists as a gas. So, when helium is present in a toy balloon then it acquires the volume of toy balloon.

(b)   Mercury in a thermometer : Mercury at room temperature exists as a liquid. When it is placed in a thermometer then volume of mercury does not get affected.

(c)    Soup in a bowl : Since, soup is a liquid. Hence, its volume will not change according to the volume of container.

Churning or mixing food.

The stomach is a muscular sac that lies between theesophagus and thesmall intestine in the upper abdomen. The stomach is not the only part of your digestive system that absorbs food but rather is a part of the digestive system and important for churning food into a consistency that is easier to digest for the rest of your intestines.
