If the reaction equation is KClO4 -> KCl + 2 O2, as will occur at sufficiently high temperature, 2 moles of O2 will form from each gram formula mass of KClO4. This formula unit mass has the value 138.55; therefore, the number of moles of diatomic oxygen formed will be 2(3/138.55), or about 4 X 10-2 moles. If the integer 3 is considered exact, more significant digits are justified, and the answer can be better approximated as 4.3306 X 10-2

Is potassium chlorate polar covalent?

Potassium chlorate is an ionic compound, not a covalent compound. It is made up of potassium cations (K+) and chlorate anions (ClO3-), where the strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions holds the compound together.

What volume of a 0.550 M solution of potassium hydroxide can be made with 10.7g of potassium hydroxide?

To calculate the volume, first find the number of moles of potassium hydroxide using its molar mass. Then use the molarity to calculate the volume. Calculate moles of KOH: 10.7g / 56.11g/mol = 0.191 moles KOH Volume = moles / Molarity = 0.191 moles / 0.550 mol/L = 0.348 L = 348 mL

How is potassium chlorate made?

There is a good method posted on: http://www.skepticfiles.org/new/003doc.htm (just read up to "Powder these to the consistency of face powder, and heat gently to drive off all moisture.") This basically describes taking bleach heating it, adding potassium chloride (easy-to-buy salt substitute), cooling the solution, and filtering it. Heating the bleach causes the NaClO (sodium hypochlorite) to decompose into NaCl (table salt) and NaClO3 (sodium chlorate). Upon the addition of the KCl (potassium chloride), the NaClO3 and KCl undergo and double displacement reaction creating the KClO3. 3NaClO ---> 2NaCl + NaClO3 NaClO3 + KCl ---> KClO3 + NaCl The method was easy and successful for me, but if worst comes to worst, do a Google search and it will point you in the right direction.

What is bullet primer made of?

Primers for CARTRIDGES (bullets are the part that comes out of the barrel) are made of a material that explodes into flame when struck. That material has, in the past, included fulminate of mercury, and potassium chlorate. Modern primers are generally made from lead azide.
