Mass of KCl= 19.57 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

12.6 g of Oxygen

Required

mass of KCl

Solution

Reaction

2KClO3 ⇒ 2KCl + 3O2

mol O2 :

= mass : MW

= 12.6 : 32 g/mol

= 0.39375

From the equation, mol KCl :

= 2/3 x mol O2

= 2/3 x 0.39375

=0.2625

Mass KCl :

= mol x MW

= 0.2625 x 74,5513 g/mol

= 19.57 g

if a gas sample has a pressure of 761 mmhg at 0.00°c by how much does the temperature have to decrease to lower the pressure to

Nady [450]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

272.43 K or -0.718°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

The initial pressure,P1 as 761 mmHg

Initial temperature, T1 as 0.00°C which is equivalent to 273.15 K

Final pressure as 759 mmHg

We are required to calculate the final temperature;

According to pressure law, the pressure of a gas and absolute temperature are directly proportional at constant volume.

That is; Pα T

Therefore, at varying pressure and temperature,

$\frac{P1}{T1}=\frac{P2}{T2}$

To get final temperature;

$T2=\frac{P2T1}{P1}$

$T2=\frac{(759 mmHg)(273.15K)}{761 mmHg}$

$T2=272.43K$

Therefore, the final temperature will be 272.43 K or -0.718°C

How many grams of calcium chloride will be produced when 29.0 g of calcium carbonate is combined with 15.0 g of hydrochloric aci

horsena [70]

Answer:

22.7 g of CaCl₂ are produced in the reaction

Explanation:

This is the reaction:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O

Now, let's determine the limiting reactant.

Let's divide the mass between the molar mass, to find out moles of each reactant.

29 g / 100.08 g/m = 0.289 of carbonate

15 g / 36.45 g/m = 0.411 of acid

1 mol of carbonate must react with 2 moles of acid

0.289 moles of carbonate will react with the double of moles (0.578)

I only have 0.411 of HCl, so the acid is the limiting reactant.

Ratio is 2:1, so I will produce the half of moles, of salt.

0.411 / 2 = 0.205 moles of CaCl₂

Mol . molar mass = mass → 0.205 m . 110.98 g/m = 22.7 g

A cylinder is labeled \"PENTANE.\" When the gas inside the cylinder is monochlorinated, five isomers of formula C5H11Cl result.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

a mixture of two these

Explanation:

The number of isomeric monochlorides depends on the structure and number of equivalent hydrogen atoms in each isomer of pentane.

n-pentane has three different kinds of equivalent hydrogen atoms leading to three isomeric monochlorides formed.

Isopentane has four different types of equivalent hydrogen atoms hence four isomeric monochlorides are formed.

Lastly, neopentane has only one type of equivalent hydrogen atoms that yields one mono chlorination product.

Hence the cylinder must contain a mixture of isopentane and neopentane which yields four and one isomeric monochlorides giving a total of five identifiable monochloride products as stated in the question.
