How many grams of potassium chlorate would be produced by reacting 500 grams of potassium chlorate with oxygen gas?
Nothing is produced, 500g potassium chlorate will be the same 500 g potassium chlorate after reaction. Actually there is no reaction at all.
What happen when potassium chlorate is heated?
It would decompose and turn molten. But be careful when you are doing it. Molten potassium chlorate is very nasty stuff. Spill it onto your skin, and it would leave a terrible burn. Potassium chlorate decomposes into oxygen, and when something that could burn, such as a gummy bear, is added to it, it rapidly combusts, driving the decomposition forward. If you spill molten potassium chlorate, you could think of the table, floor, your clothes, your skin, as another gummy bear. So be cautious when working with it.
Potassium chlorate--on heating potassium?
Despite that potassium chlorate catches on fire when it gets heated in the open, if you put it in a test tube and heat that, instead of burning it will melt into molten form, and this stage of potassium chlorate is extremely reactive, any contact with anything combustible like sugar would cause combustion of it. This is the basis for the famous gummy bear and potassium chlorate experiment. The sugar in the gummy bear would combust on contact with the molten potassium chlorate, resulting in an violent reaction.
What if a potassium chlorate sample is contaminated with moisture. Would an analysis show the experimental oxygen higher or lower than the theoretical oxygen?
The chemical composition is determined on a dry and pure sample.
How many moles of oxygen are produced when 7.5 moles of potassium chlorate decompose completely?
2 KClO3 ----> 2KCl + 3O2 So 2 moles of Potassium Chlorate produces 3 moles of oxygen molecules or 6 moles of oxygen atoms. 3 moles of Potassium chlorate would thus produce 4.5 moles of oxygen molecules or 9 moles of oxygen atoms.

What property is it when a potassium perchlorate decomposes to potassium chlorate and oxygen gas?
Since decomposition is a chemical reaction, it would be considered a chemical property.
What if a potassium chlorate sample is contaminated with KCL would the experimental percent oxygen be higher or lower than the theoretical percent oxygen?
the experimental % oxygen would be lower because there would be more KCL in the simple than oxygen

If you put potassium chloride in the crucible instead of potassium chlorate how would the results turn out?
Potassium chloride is melted at 770 oC.
Why would lithium chlorate be a more practical choice for the chlorate candle?
because it depends on the number of the moles that you will get, so the more moles number that you have for the chlorate the more oxygen that you will get.

Would potassium bond with oxygen?
Yes. Potassium will react readily with oxygen to form potassium peroxide.
What are the names of te elements found in sodium chlorate?
Sodium Chlorate's formula is NaClO3. Therefore, the elements found in Sodium Chlorate would be Sodium (Na), Chlorine (Cl), and Oxygen (O).
Which two elements are contained in all hydroxides?
Potassium Hydroxide - KOH - Potassium, Oxygen and Hydrogen
