Decomposition of potassium chlorate (kclo3) produces potassium chloride (kcl) and pure oxygen (o2). the balanced equation for the reaction is as follows.

what volume of oxygen gas is released at stp if 10.0 g of potassium chlorate is decomposed? (the molar mass of kclo3 is 122.55 g/mol.)

Molar mass :

KClO₃ = 122.55 g/mol
O₂ = 32 g/mol

2 KClO₃ = 2 KCl + 3 O₂

2 x 122.55 g KClO₃ > 3 x 32 g O₂
10.0 g KClO₃ > ?

Mass of O₂ = ( 10.0 x 3 x 32 ) / ( 2 x 122.55 )

Mass of O₂ = 960 / 245.1

Mass of O₂ = 3.9167 g

number of moles O₂ => 3.9167 / 32 = 0.1223 moles 

1 mol 22.4 L ( at STP)
0.1223 moles ?

V = 0.1223 x 22.4 / 1

V = 2.739 L

hope this helps!

Answer the molar mass of magnesium is 24.305g/mol.

Polyethylene is a strong synthetic polymer that can be used to make toys and bottles. polyethylene is a plastic material called thermoplastic. one very useful property of thermoplastic is that when it is heated it turns into liquid, which can be molded into desired shape and size. also the material do not dissolve at room temperature.
