Amelia is doing an experiment in which she is going to burn various solid chemicals to see the
colors of flames they produce. For this laboratory
experiment, what types of safety precautions
should she take?
tie hair back
leave open flame unattended to get a drink
only burn the amount of chemicals as
directed by the lab procedure
put out the flame with water from the eyewash
station

tie hair back

only burn the amount of chemicals as

directed by the lab procedure

Explanation:

The correct safety precautions for Amelia to take from the options would be to tie her hair back and to only burn the amount of chemicals recommended by the lab procedure.

With her hair left flowing freely, Amelia runs the risk of the hair catching flame while trying to burn the chemicals according to the procedure. Hence, tying her hair up into one neat bunch will limit the risk of it catching fire while working in the lab.

Also, burning less or more than the amount of chemicals recommended by the procedure may be dangerous or hinder Amelia from getting the right result.

  the grams     of oxygen gas   that can be produced     is 20.6   grams of o₂

calculation

2liclo₃ →   2 licl + 3 o₂

step 1:   find the moles of liclo₃

moles = mass÷ molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of liclo₃ =6.9 +35.5   +(16 x3) =90.4 g/mol

moles=38.7 g÷90.4 g/mol=0.4281   moles

step 2:   use the   mole ratio   to calculate the moles of o2

from equation above, liclo₃: o₂   is 2: 3  

therefore the moles of   o₂=0.4281 moles x3/2 =0.6422   moles

step 3: find mass   of o₂

mass= moles x molar mass

from periodic table the   molar mass of   o₂ = 16 x2= 32 g/mol

mass=0.6422   moles   x   32 g/mol = 20.6 grams of o₂
