A sample of solid potassium chlorate (KCIO3) was heated in a test tube and decomposed according to the following reaction: 2KCIO3(s) → 2KCI(s) + 302(g) The oxygen produced was collected by displacement of water at 22°C at a total pressure of 754 torr. The volume of the gas collected was 0.65OL, and the vapor pressure of water at 22°C is 21 torr. Calculate the moles of KCIO3?

The human body burns glucose (C6H12O6) for energy according to this chemical reaction: C6H12O6+6O2→ 6CO2+6H2O The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500.mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO2 and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 0.50kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO2 is 2.0 kg/m^3 .

At 460 °C, the reaction * NO(g) + SO3(g) SO2(g) + NO2(g) has Kc = 85.0. Suppose 0.109 mol of SO2, 0.0612 mol of NO2, 0.0755 mol of NO, and 0.118 mol SO3 are placed in a 10.0 L container at that temperature. What will the concentrations of all the gases be when the system reaches equilibrium? %3D [SO2) = M i [NO2] = M %3D [NO] = i M [SO3] = i M
A student experimentally determines the gas law constant, R, by reacting a small piece of magnesium with excess hydrochloric acid and then collecting the hydrogen gas over water in a eudiometer. Based L-atm on experimentally collected data, the student calculates R to equal 0.0832 mol·K L-atm Ideal gas law constant from literature: 0.08206 mol·K (a) Determine the percent error for the student's R-value. Percent error = % (b) For the statements below, identify the possible source(s) of error for this student's trial. The student notices a large air bubble in the eudiometer after collecting the hydrogen gas, but does not dislodge it. The student does not clean the zinc metal with sand paper. The student does not equilibrate the water levels within the eudiometer and the beaker at the end of the reaction. The water level in the eudiometer is 1-inch above the water level in the beaker. The student uses the barometric pressure for the lab to calculate R.
