Question

/>How many moles of O2 will be formed from 7.46 moles of KClO3? (Sig Figs Count)

Answer 1

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to use the equation ratio between O2 and KClO3:

2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2

2 moles of KClO3 produces 3 moles of O2

So:

2 moles of KClO3 --- 3 moles of O2

7.46 moles of KClO3 --- x moles of O2

2*x = 3*7.46

x = 22.38/2

x = 11.19 moles

Answer: It will be formed 11.19 moles of O2.
