how many grams of molecular oxygen (O2) is produced from 13.8 grams of calcium chlorate (Ca(ClO3)2)in the following chemical reaction?Ca(ClO3)2→CaCl2+ 3O2

6.72 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of calcium chlorate = 13.8 g

Mass of oxygen produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Ca(ClO₃)₂        →      CaCl₂ + 3O₂

Number of moles of calcium chlorate:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 13.8 g/ 206.98 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.07 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen and  calcium chlorate.

                 Ca(ClO₃)₂         :            O₂

                      1                   :              3

                    0.07               :            3×0.07=0.21 mol

Mass of oxygen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.21 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 6.72 g

sorry i was late, but i don't know what assignment your talking about, i'm in flvs as well, im in earth space science. but u are behind pace bc every class should be in the 3's or 4'

you need to have a picture of the atom that way we can answer it
