How many moles of potassium Chlorate are needed to produce 15.0 moles of oxygen

Answer 1

10 moles of potassium Chlorate are required to produce 15 mole of oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is

2KClO3(s)→2KCl(s)+3O2(g)

2 moles of potassium Chlorate produce 3 moles of oxygen

Number of moles of potassium Chlorate required to produce 1 mole of oxygen
`= (2)/(3)`

Number of moles of potassium Chlorate required to produce 15 mole of oxygen

`= (2)/(3) * 15\\= 10`

10 moles of potassium Chlorate are required to produce 15 mole of oxygen
