in an oversight in the experiment jamie did not add the 4-5 additional drop of 6M JNO3. as result, will the reported number of moles of oxygen be too high or too low in the final product? explain.
The reported number of moles will be too low since the additional amount of oxygen is not included. It may be 6 drops but the molarity of the solution is 6M. this meas that for every ml of the JNO3 solution there is 6 moles of JNO3. In every mole of JNO3 there are 3 moles of oxygen. So in every drop of oxygen there are 18 moles of oxygen.
