Percent Purity From Gas Collection

Mark
< Prev
Next >

A 0.500 g sample of impure KClO₃ is heated, causing it to decompose according to the reaction: 2KClO3(s)→2KCl(s)+3O2(g)2\mathrm{KClO}_3(s) \rightarrow 2\mathrm{KCl}(s) + 3\mathrm{O}_2(g). The resulting O₂ gas is collected over water at 25°C and a total pressure of 755 mmHg, occupying a volume of 95.0 mL. If the vapor pressure of water at 25°C is 23.8 mmHg, what is the percent purity of the KClO₃ sample?

A

82.6%

B

61.0%

C

73.9%

D

100.0%
