Chapter 9.3, Problem 9.4P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The moles of $\text{KCl}$ and ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ produced from $\text{100}\text{g}$ moles of ${\text{KClO}}_{\text{3}}$ has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Mole ratio:

A mole ratio is a ratio between the numbers of moles of any two species involved in a chemical reaction.

Example,

In the reaction ${\text{2H}}_{\text{2}}{\text{+O}}_{\text{2}}\stackrel{}{\to }{\text{2H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$, the mole ratio can be written as $\frac{\text{2}\text{mol}{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{1}\text{mol}{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}.$
