(i) What is limiting reactant?

(ii) Oxygen is prepared by catalytic decomposition of potassium chlorate (KClO3

).

Decomposition of potassium chlorate gives potassium chloride (KCl) and oxygen (O2

).

If 2.4 mol of oxygen is needed for an experiment, how many grams of potassium chlorate must be

decomposed?

(At. mass of K = 39, Cl=35.5, O = 16)​

Answer:

Decomposition of KClO

3

takes place as:

2KClO

3

(s)→2KCl(s)+3O

2

(g)

2 mole of KClO

3

=3 mole of O

2

∵ 3 mole O

2

formed by 2 mole KClO

3

∴2.4 mole of O

2

will be formed by:

(

3

2

×2.4) mol KClO

3

= 1.6 mole of KClO

3

.

Mass of KClO

3

= Number of moles × Molar mass

=1.6×122.5=196g

hope it helps ☺️
