Balance the decomposition reaction:
Hypothesis:
What percentage do you predict for the KCI (potassium chloride) and KCIO, (potassium
chlorate)?
Materials:
safety glasses
mass balance
test tube
test tube clamp
test tube tongs
manganese dioide. MaO
mixture of KCO KC
ring stand
Procedure:
1. Bring a dry test tube to your teacher and obtain the manganese dicxide catalyst
2. Weigh the test tube with the catalyst (W,)
3. Obtain a sample of KCI and KCIO, mixture and mix it gently by tapping on the bottom
of the test tube several times
4. Weigh the test tube with all of the chemicals (W.)
5. Place the test tube in the holder (at an angle) and turn on the propane flame (make sure
the flame is on low)
a. Move the flame around to avoid overheating individual portions of the mixture
(the entire process should take about 3 to 4 minutes)
b. Once the oxygen is driven off, turn the flame off.
6. Let the test tube cool
7. Bring the test tube to the scale and weigh it for the last time (W)

Claim, Evidence, Reasoning for
The Decomposition of Potassium Chlorate (KCIO,)
Question/Problem: what is the composition of potassium chlorate (KCIO,) in a mixture of
potassium chlorate and potassium chloride (KCI)?
Discussion/Background:
ive selationships in a chemical reaction is called stoichiometry.
chlorate (KCIO) decomposes. Oxygen gas is released and potassium
chlond
is formed during the reaction.
KC10, e)
KCl, + O2 (g)
3. The decomposition is aided by the presence of a cotalyst, manganese dioxide. The MnO, will
reaction process.
the original mixture remains unchanged when heated.
remain unchanger
4. The potassium chloride
