Question13 answer with explanation
Q.13. When one mole of potassium chlorate is heated :
(A) 2 moles of potassium chlorate are formed
(B) moles of oxygen gas are formed
(C) mole of potassium chloride are formed
(D) moles of are formed.
Dear student
potassium chlorate ------------------> potassium chloride + oxygen
heat
Equation- 2 KClO3(s) --------------> 2KCl(s) + 3O2(g)
KClO3(s) --------> KCl(s) + 3/2O2(g)
So the correct 3/2 moles of O2
potassium chlorate ------------------> potassium chloride + oxygen
heat
Equation- 2 KClO3(s) --------------> 2KCl(s) + 3O2(g)
KClO3(s) --------> KCl(s) + 3/2O2(g)
So the correct 3/2 moles of O2
