Given sample containing potassium chlorate, determine the percent composition of the mixture: Potassium chlorate: KClO3 DATASHEET Mass of test tube MnO2: 30.5 g Mass of test tube MnO2 KCl - KCIO3: 82.16 g After first heating: Mass of test tube and reaction product: 31.21 g After second heating: Mass of test tube and reaction product: 34.21 g After third heating: Mass of test tube and reaction product: 21.10 g Calculations and Results: Mass of KCl: 67.5 g Mass of KCIO3: 30.16 g Mass of O2 released: 28.44 g Moles of O2 released: 0.695 mol

Potassium Perchlorate Solid potassium perchlorate fully decomposes on heating to form solid potassium chloride and gaseous oxygen. Using an apparatus like the one utilized in this experiment, the following data was collected for the thermal decomposition of a mixture containing both potassium perchlorate and an inert solid that does not decompose upon heating. Write the balanced molecular equation for the thermal decomposition of solid potassium perchlorate, including physical states. KClO4(s) -> KCl(s) + 2O2(g) Data Mass of sample mixture before heating: 2.838 g Volume of water displaced: 489 mL Atmospheric pressure: 756.8 torr Water temperature: 28.0°C Based upon the data provided, determine the mass of KClO4 in the original sample mixture. 1.3643 Based on the data provided, what is the percent by mass of KClO4 in the sample mixture that was heated? 48.07 If the oxygen that was produced in this decomposition reaction was collected at standard temperature and pressure, calculate the dry volume (in L) of the oxygen produced. Dry volume = volume of a gas without any water vapor present. 0.4416
