Chapter 5, Problem 69E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Mass percent of ${\text{NaClO}}_{\text{3}}$ in the original sample is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The assimilation of various gas laws namely Boyle’s law, Charles law and Avogadro’s results in formulation of ideal gas equation as given below:

  $PV=nRT$

Where,

• $R$ is gas constant.
• $V$ denotes the volume.
• $n$ denotes number of moles.
• $T$ denotes temperature.
• $P$ denotes pressure.

The formula to convert degree Celsius to kelvin is as follows:

  $T\left(\text{K}\right)=T\left(°\text{C}\right)+273\text{ K}$
