In this experiment, we decompose potassium chlorate by heating it to form potassium chloride and oxygen gas, following the chemical equation 2 KClO3(s) ? 2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g). The objective is to analyze the percent composition of potassium chlorate through this decomposition process. We start by cleaning and drying two crucibles to ensure accurate measurements. Heating the crucible helps in removing any substances that may alter mass upon heating.
