How many moles of oxygen are formed when 58.6 g of KNO3 decomposes according to the following reaction? The molar mass of KNO3 is 101.11 g/mol. 4 KNO3(s) → 2 K2O(s) + 2 N2(g) + 5 O2(g)

la respuesta es si te gusta hacer lo que siempre haces cuando nunca ves a alguien en el espejo porque sabes que no siempre están ahí.

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.
