A mixture contains KClO3 and KCl. When the mixture is heated, only the KClO3 decomposes via the following reaction:
2KClO3 (s) → 3O2 (g) + 2KCl (s)
In an experiment to determine the percent KClO3 in a KClO3/KCl mixture, the mixture was heated in a crucible several times in order to bring it to constant mass. The following experimental data was obtained.
Before Heating
Mass empty crucible + lid = 20.61 g
Mass crucible + lid+ KClO3/KCl mixture = 26.11 g
After Heating
Mass crucible + lid+ contents (after final heating ) = 24.68 g
a) Mass KClO3 in mixture (stoichiometric calculation from the mass of oxygen evolved)
b) %KClO3 in mixture (g KClO3/g mixture then multiply by 100)

- Dimethyl ether, a useful organic solvent, is prepared in two steps. In the first step, carbon dioxide and hydrogen react to form methanol and water: CO₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) CH₂OH(1) + H₂O(1) In the second step, methanol reacts to form dimethyl ether and water: 2 CH₂OH(1)→ CH₂OCH3(g) + H₂O(1) Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of dimethyl ether from carbon dioxide and hydrogen from these reactions.

A+B D →> Reaction 2 gives product D. The following facts are known about the two reactions: • Reaction 1 is endothermic and Reaction 2 is exothermic. • If a reaction vessel is charged ("filled") with A and B, then at first C is produced faster than D. Use these facts to sketch a qualitative reaction energy diagram for both reactions. Note: because these sketches are only qualitative, the energies don't have to be exact. They only have to have the right relationship to each other. For if one energy is less than another, that fact should be clear in your sketch. energy A + B Reaction 1 reaction coordinate energy A + B Reaction 2 reaction coordinate ☑arrow_forward
