What mass of potassium chlorate is needed to produce 8.50 mol of oxygen? 2KCIO3 →
2KCl +302

694.2915 grams of potassium chlorate is needed to produce 8.50 mol of oxygen

Explanation:

It is possible to apply the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry 3 moles of O₂ are produced by 2 moles of KCIO₃, when reacting 8.5 moles of O₂, how many moles of KClO₃ are necessary?

moles of KClO₃= 5.67

To know the amount of mass present in 5.67 moles of the compound, it is necessary to know the molar mass, that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole. Being:

The molar mass of the compound is:

KClO₃= 39 g/mole + 35.45 g/mole + 3* (16 g/mole)= 122.45 g/mole

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if in 1 mole of the compound there are 122.45 grams, in 5.67 moles how much mass is there?

mass= 694.2915 grams

694.2915 grams of potassium chlorate is needed to produce 8.50 mol of oxygen

in chemistry, a solution’s concentration is how much of a dissolvable substance, known as a solute, is mixed with another substance, called the solvent. the standard formula is c = m/v, where c is the concentration, m is the mass of the solute dissolved, and v is the total volume

radioactive decay occurs in unstable atomic nuclei – that is, ones that don't have enough binding energy to hold

the nucleus together due to an excess of either protons or neutrons.
