Explanation / Answer

Balanced equation:
2 KClO3 ====> 2 KCl + 3 O2

Reaction type: decomposition

Let us calculate the moles of O2 produced in the reaction.

PV= nRT

P = Pressure in atm                       V= Volume in Liter

n = no of moles               R = 0.0821 L atm K-1 Mol-1

T = Temperature in Kelvin

Pressure of oxygen = 757 - 23.8 = 733.2 mmHg = 0.9647 atm

V = 6.8 Liter

T = 25 Deg Cel = 298 K

substitute the values in the equation

n = PV / RT = 0.9647 x 6.8 / 0.08206 x 298 = 0.2682 Moles

Grams O2 produced = 0.2682 x 32 = 8.58 gm

8.58 gm of Oxygen is produced
