Potassium chlorate, kclo3, decomposes according to the reaction: 2kclo3 → 2kcl 3o2 if the rate of decomposition of kclo3 at a certain time is determined to be 2.4 x 10-2 mol s-1, what is the rate of formation of kcl at the same time

Explanation

Referring to coefficients of and the equation, the decomposition of every moles of potassium chlorate would yield moles of potassium chloride. At any time in the reaction process the rate of production of shall equals to the rate at which is being consumed.

The question states that the reaction consumes of every single second on average. One would thus expect it to produce the same amount of in the same period of time. is thus produced at a rate of

there is none because earth is stationary and flat.
