Question:

Consider the following reaction.

2KClO{eq}_3 {/eq}(s) {eq}\rightarrow {/eq} 2KCl(s) + 3O{eq}_2 {/eq}(g)

a. How many grams of KCl are produced from the complete reaction of 12.5 mol of KClO{eq}_3 {/eq}?

b. How many grams of KCl are produced from the complete reaction of 38.4 g of CKIO{eq}_3 {/eq}?

Mass to Mass Stoichiometry:

The balanced chemical equation allows chemists to establish the mole ratio from the stoichiometric coefficients. The mole ratio along with the molar mass of the chemical species involved in the chemical reaction are conversion factors used to convert one amount of substance to another.
