How many grams of potassium chloride is produced with 2.5g of pure potassium

Chemistry

Answer:

The key to chemistry is to change everything to moles. Then when you have the answer in moles change the answer back to grams, liters, or whatever you want.

change 25 grams of potassium chlorate to moles.

calculate the gram molecular mass of potassium chlorate.

Chlorate is Cl with 3 oxygens. ate = saturated. Chlorine has seven valance electrons when it is saturated six of these electrons are used by oxygen ( 2 electrons per oxygen) leaving only 1 electron.

1 K x 39 grams/mole

+1 Cl x 35.4 grams/ mole

+3 O x 16 grams/ mole

= 122.4 grams / mole Potassium Chlorate

25

122.4

= moles.

2.05 moles of Potassium Chlorate.

There is a 1:1 mole ratio. 1 mole of Potassium Chlorate will produce 1 mole of Potassium Chloride.

2.05 moles of Potassium Chlorate will produce 2.05 moles of Potassium Chloride.

Find the gram molecular mass of Potassium Chloride.

1 K x 39 = 39

+1 Cl x 35.4 = 35.4

= 74.4 grams / mole.

2.05 moles x 74.4 grams/ mole = 15.2 grams

Balance the combustion eqation; __C5H + __O2 ---> __CO2+__H2O
stira [4]
This equation C5H + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O has a mistake.

C5H is wrong. You missed the subscript of H.

I will do it for you assuming some subscript to show you the procedure, but you have to use the right equation to get the right balanced equation.

Assuming the tha combustion equation is C5H12 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

First you need to  balance C, so you put a 5 before CO2 and get

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + H2O

Now you count the hydrogens: 12 on the left and 2 on the right. So put a 6 before H2O and get:

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now count the oxygens: 2 on the left and 16 on the right, so put an 8 on before O2:

=> C5H12 + 8O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O.

You can verify that the equation is balanced
