How many grams of HCIO3 can be produced from 7.2 g of C/O2 according to the following reaction? (7.5 g HCIO3) 6 CI02 + 3 H20 - 5 HCIO + HCI

Answer 1

6ClO₂ + 3H₂O ==> 5HClO₃ + HCl ... balanced equation (I think this is what you meant)

molar mass HClO₃ = 84.4 g/mol

molar mass ClO₂ = 67.5 g/mol

7.2 g ClO₂ x 1 mol ClO₂/67.5 g x 5 mol HClO₃ / 6 mol ClO₂ x 84.4 g HClO₃/mol = 7.50 g HClO₃
