Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.
Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.
K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,
Q = V*A
Where,
A= Cross-sectional Area
V = Velocity
The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,


Our values are given as,


Re-arrange the equation to find the first ratio of rates we have:



The second ratio of rates is
