Answer:
Newton, absolute unit of force in the International System of Units (SI units), abbreviated N. It is defined as that force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one metre per second per second.
First, balance the reaction:
_ KClO₃ ==> _ KCl + _ O₂
As is, there are 3 O's on the left and 2 O's on the right, so there needs to be a 2:3 ratio of KClO₃ to O₂. Then there are 2 K's and 2 Cl's among the reactants, so we have a 1:1 ratio of KClO₃ to KCl :
2 KClO₃ ==> 2 KCl + 3 O₂
Since we start with a known quantity of O₂, let's divide each coefficient by 3.
2/3 KClO₃ ==> 2/3 KCl + O₂
Next, look up the molar masses of each element involved:
• K: 39.0983 g/mol
• Cl: 35.453 g/mol
• O: 15.999 g/mol
Convert 10 g of O₂ to moles:
(10 g) / (31.998 g/mol) ≈ 0.31252 mol
The balanced reaction shows that we need 2/3 mol KClO₃ for every mole of O₂. So to produce 10 g of O₂, we need
(2/3 (mol KClO₃)/(mol O₂)) × (0.31252 mol O₂) ≈ 0.20835 mol KClO₃
KClO₃ has a total molar mass of about 122.549 g/mol. Then the reaction requires a mass of
(0.20835 mol) × (122.549 g/mol) ≈ 25.532 g
of KClO₃.
These are the correct solutions:
It is 11 a.m. in the Eastern Time Zone; therefore, it is 8 a.m. in the Pacific Time Zone. (3 hrs behind)
It is 3 p.m. in the Central Time Zone; therefore, 2 p.m. in the Mountain Time Zone. (1 hr behind)
It is 6 p.m. in the Pacific Time Zone; therefore, it is 4 p.m in Hawaii. (2 or 3 hours behind depending on time of year)
It is 6 p.m. in Hawaii; therefore, it is 11 p.m. in the Eastern Time Zone (5 or 6 hours behind depending on time of year).
It is 3 p.m. in Hawaii; therefore, it is 6 p.m. in the Mountain Time Zone (3 or 4 hours behind depending on time of year).
Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and create greenhouse gases. While cheaper now to burn fossil fuels, within fifty years we will run out and have to turn to other sources of energy. Hope this helps!!!
