Answer:
9 moles
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation for this decomposition reaction is as follows:
2KCIO3 → 2KCI+ 302
Based on this equation, 2 moles of potassium chlorate (KCIO3) decomposes to form 3 moles of oxygen gas (O2).
Hence, 6 moles of pottasium chlorate will decompose to produce;
6 × 3 ÷ 2
= 18 ÷ 2
= 9 moles of O2.
