Explanation / Answer

Molar volume calculation

Trial 1,

mass of O2 generated = 16.908 - 16.666 = 0.242 g

moles of O2 = 0.242 g/32 g/mol = 0.0076 mol

Volume of gas (V1) = 190 ml = 0.190 L

Temperature (T1) = 24 oC + 273 = 297 K

vapor pressure of water at 24 oC = 22.4 torr

partial pressure of O2 (P1) = 743.24 - 22.4 = 720.84 torr

                                            = 720.84/760 = 0.95 atm

Volume of O2 at STP = P1V1T2/T1P2

with P2 and T2 be pressure and temperature at STP

                                   = 0.95 x 0.190 x 273.15/297 x 1 = 0.166 L

molar volume of O2 = 0.166 L/0.0076 mol = 21.843 L/mol

Trial 2,

mass of O2 generated = 0.330 g

moles of O2 = 0.330 g/32 g/mol = 0.0103 mol

Volume of gas (V1) = 233 ml = 0.233 L

Temperature (T1) = 23.5 oC + 273 = 296.5 K

vapor pressure of water at 23.5 oC = 21.75 torr

partial pressure of O2 (P1) = 743.24 - 21.75 = 721.49 torr

                                            = 721.49/760 = 0.95 atm

Volume of O2 at STP = P1V1T2/T1P2

with P2 and T2 be pressure and temperature at STP

                                   = 0.95 x 0.233 x 273.15/296.5 x 1 = 0.204 L

molar volume of O2 = 0.204 L/0.0103 mol = 19.806 L/mol

Average molar volume of O2 = 20.8245 L/mol

percent error in molar volume = (22.4 - 20.8245) x 100/22.4 = 7.03%

Percent KClO3 in the sample

2KClO3 --> 2KCl + 3O2

Trial 1,

moles O2 = 0.0076 mol

mass KClO3 = 0.0076 mol x 2 x 122.55 g/mol/3 = 0.9314 g

percent KClO3 in sample = 0.9314 g x 100/1.485 g = 62.72%

Trial 2,

moles O2 = 0.0103 mol

mass KClO3 = 0.0103 mol x 2 x 122.55 g/mol/3 = 0.84151 g

percent KClO3 in sample = 0.84151 g x 100/1.989 g = 42.31%

average %KClO3 in sample = 52.515%
