Solid potassium chlorate (KClO3) decomposes to produce solid potassium chloride (KCl) and oxygen gas (O2) according to the balanced chemical equation 2KClO3(s) = 2KCl(s) + 3O2(g). What volume of oxygen gas, measured at 40.0°C and 650 mm Hg, will be produced when 13.5 g of potassium chlorate is decomposed?
