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.
Answer:
the answer is C acid dissolving limestone
Explanation:
Answer:
option c is correct
Explanation:
the addition of catalyst does not effect the position or equilibrium constant and increase the forward and backward reaction in equal rates so no effect would be observed
Atomic radii increase when going down a group and decreases when going towards the anion periods. So A and D.
Oxygen, fluorine and iodine are diatomic elements. Flourine is more reactive than the other two because it is the closest away to filling its outer layer of electrons and becoming stable like a noble gas.
