Expert Solution
Step 1

The weight of the content in the test tube before heating gives the collective weight of KClO3 and MnO2 whereas the weight of the content in the test tube after heating gives the collective weight of KCl and MnO2.

Weight of test tube = 34.38

Weight of the content before heating = 61.88 – 34.38 g = 27.50 g

Weight of the content after heating = 60.7 – 34.38 g = 26.32 g

Volume of oxygen gas released (V) = volume of water displaced = 1.445 L

Pressure of the moist gas = 752.1 mm Hg = 0.989 atm

Vapor pressure of water = 31 torr = 0.041 atm

Pressure of dry gas = Pressure of moist gas – Vapor pressure of water

Pressure of dry gas (P) = 0.989 atm – 0.041 atm = 0.948 atm

Temperature of oxygen gas (T) = 298.3 K

Universal gas constant R = 0.0821 Latm/molK

The number of moles of gas (n) can be calculated by using the ideal gas equation PV = nRT.
