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.

How does the kinetic molecular theory explain the fact that gases condense into liquids?
Elenna [48]
<h3><u>Condensation of gases into liquids by kinetic molecular theory:</u></h3>

The "kinetic molecular theory" explains the states of matter based on the matter composed of very tiny little particles that are constantly in motion. The theory also explains the observable properties and behaviors of solids, liquids, and gases.

Condensation of particles of a real gas to form liquid is due to the attractive forces present in between them. During the condensation process, gas molecules slows down and come together to form a liquid.  And also during the transfer of energy to something cooler, the process slows down and they attract the bond to become liquid.  Each particle motion is completely independent. The kinetic energy of gas particles is dependent on the temperature of the gas.
