**Chemical Reaction Analysis Problem****Problem Statement:**A sample of iron weighing 15.0 g was heated with potassium chlorate (KClO₃) in an evacuated container. The oxygen generated from the decomposition of KClO₃ converted some of the Fe to Fe₂O₃. If the combined mass of Fe and Fe₂O₃ was 17.9 g, calculate the mass of Fe₂O₃ formed and the mass of KClO₃ decomposed. Please show your work for credit and comment on other students such as asking a question or pointing the student in the right direction.**Explanation:**This problem involves a chemical reaction between iron and the oxygen produced from potassium chlorate decomposition. The task requires performing stoichiometric calculations to determine the quantities of iron(III) oxide (Fe₂O₃) formed and the potassium chlorate (KClO₃) decomposed. Here's the step-by-step approach:1. **Understand the Reactions:** - Decomposition of potassium chlorate: \[ 2 \text{KClO}_3 \rightarrow 2 \text{KCl} + 3 \text{O}_2 \] - Formation of iron(III) oxide: \[ 4 \text{Fe} + 3 \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 \]2. **Given Data:** - Initial mass of iron (Fe) = 15.0 g. - Combined mass of Fe and Fe₂O₃ = 17.9 g.3. **Determine Mass of Fe₂O₃ Formed:** - Let the mass of Fe₂O₃ formed be \( x \). - The remaining mass should be iron: \( 15.0 \text{ g} - ( \text{moles of Fe used for } x \text{ g of Fe₂O₃}) \).4. **Mass Balance Equation:** - \( 15.0 \text{ g (Fe)} - \text{moles of Fe used for } x = 17.9 \text{ g} \)5. **Convert Masses to Moles:** - Use molar masses of Fe (55.85 g/mol) and Fe₂O

A sample of iron weighing 15.0 g was heated with potassium chlorate (KCIO3) in an evacuated container. The oxygen generated from the decomposition of KCIO3 converted some of the Fe to Fe203. If the combined mass of Fe and Fe203 was 17.9 g, calculate the mass of Fe203 formed and the mass of KCIO3 decomposed. Please show your work for credit and comment on another students such as asking a question or pointing the student in the right direction.

Platinum is a precious metal that is used as a catalyst for many important industrial reactions. Platinum can be purified by reacting platinum(IV) bromide solution with aluminium metal. To test this purification process, a student reacted 14.6 kg of aluminium metal with excess platinum(IV) bromide solution. After the reaction was complete, the student had extracted 75.4 kg of platinum metal. From this data, calculate the percent error of this experiment. Hint: Write a balanced chemical reaction equation and calculate the theoretical yield of platinum first. Do not show your work in the space provided. Record only your final answer with the correct number of significant digits and the proper units. Answer: Evaluate your calculated percent error, is this an acceptable percent error?
