Explanation:
Divide the mass of chlorine by the molar mass of cobalt chloride, then multiply by 100.
Molar Mass of Cobalt Chloride.
Mass of Chlorine in Cobalt Chloride.
Percent Composition of Chlorine.
To be able to write correctly the equilibrium expression of a reaction, we need to know the balanced reaction and the phases of the substances in the reaction. When substances are solid, pure liquid they are not included in the expression. We do as follows:
<span>4KO2(s) + 2H2O(g) = 4KOH(s) + 3O2(g)
K = [O2]^3 / [H2O]^2</span>
A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule.
