Lookup the atomic weights of the involved elements
Atomic weight potassium = 39.0983
Atomic weight Chlorine = 35.453
Atomic weight Oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass KClO3 = 39.0983 + 35.453 + 3 * 15.999 = 122.5483 g/mol
Moles KClO3 = 87.4 g / 122.5483 g/mol = 0.713188188 mol
The balanced equation for heating KClO3 is
2 KClO3 = 2 KCl + 3 O2
So 2 moles of KClO3 will break down into 3 moles of oxygen molecules.
0.713188188 mol / 2 * 3 = 1.069782282 mols
So we're going to get 1.069782282 moles of oxygen molecules. Since each molecule has 2 atoms, the mass will be
1.069782282 * 2 * 15.999 = 34.23089345 grams
Rounding the results to 3 significant figures gives 34.2 grams</span>
The basic difference between thin layer chromatography (TLC) and paper chromatography (PC) is that, while the stationary phase in PC is paper, the stationary phase in TLC is a thin layer of an inert substance supported on a flat, unreactive surface. ... Paper chromatography is performed using paper.
