![**Title: Preparation of Oxygen Gas by Heating Potassium Chlorate**
**Introduction:**
Oxygen gas can be generated by heating potassium chlorate. The decomposition reaction is as follows:
\[ 2 \text{KClO}_3(s) \rightarrow 2 \text{KCl}(s) + 3 \text{O}_2(g) \]
**Experimental Details:**
The product gas, \(\text{O}_2\), is collected over water at a temperature of 20 °C and a pressure of 751 mm Hg. If the wet \(\text{O}_2\) gas formed occupies a volume of 9.94 L, the task is to calculate the number of grams of \(\text{O}_2\) produced. The vapor pressure of water at 20 °C is 17.5 mm Hg.
**Calculations:**
1. **Correct the Pressure for Water Vapor:**
Since the gas is collected over water, the pressure of the gas includes the pressure of the water vapor. To find the pressure of the dry \(\text{O}_2\), subtract the vapor pressure of water from the total pressure:
\[
\text{P}_{\text{O}_2} = 751 \, \text{mm Hg} - 17.5 \, \text{mm Hg}
\]
2. **Use the Ideal Gas Law:**
Apply the ideal gas law to find the moles of \(\text{O}_2\):
\[
\text{PV} = \text{nRT}
\]
Where:
- \( \text{P} \) is the corrected pressure in atm
- \( \text{V} \) is the volume (9.94 L)
- \( \text{n} \) is the number of moles
- \( \text{R} \) is the ideal gas constant \((0.0821 \, \text{L} \cdot \text{atm/mol} \cdot \text{K})\)
- \( \text{T} \) is the temperature in Kelvin
3. **Convert Moles to Grams:**
Use the molar mass of \(\text{O}_2\) (32.00 g/mol) to convert moles to grams.
