I have a stoichiometry problem to solve...
I need to find a b and c and x
a KCLOx
reacts and form --- bKCL + cO2
x could be 1, 2, 3, or 4.
O2 is oxygen gas
Mass of the sample (KCLOx) = 1.0318g
mass of Kcl produced = 0.6251g
Mass of oxygen produced = 0.4067g
I found that
moles of KCL produced is = 0.008385g
moles of O2 produced is = 0.01459g
but I can't find the ratio of moles O2/moles KCL
Thanks
