Answer 2

Answer:

9 moles of  $O_{2}$ are produced when 6 moles of $KClO_{3}$ decompose completely.

Explanation:

When potassium chlorate is heated, it decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen as byproducts.

$KClO_{3}$ decomposes according to the following reaction:

$2KClO_{3}$ → $2KCl + 3O_{2}$

Two moles of potassium chlorate are decomposed in the above reaction, yielding two moles of potassium chloride and three moles of oxygen as the result.

2 moles of $KClO_{3}$ gives 3 moles of $O_{2}$

⇒6 moles of $KClO_{3}$ gives $\frac{3*6}{2}$ = 9 moles of $O_{2}$

Therefore, 9 moles of  $O_{2}$ are produced when 6 moles of $KClO_{3}$ decompose completely.
