    Base your answers to questions 8 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.

    During a laboratory activity, appropriate safety equipment was used and safety procedures were followed. A laboratory technician heated a sample of solid KClO3 in a crucible to determine the percent composition by mass of oxygen in the compound. The unbalanced equation and the data for the decomposition of solid KClO3 are shown below.

    Base your answers to questions 9 on the information below.

    Iron has been used for thousands of years. In the air, iron corrodes. One reaction for the corrosion of iron is represented by the balanced equation below.

    Equation 1: 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Fe2O3(s)

    In the presence of water, iron corrodes more quickly. This corrosion is represented by the unbalanced equation below.

    Equation 2: Fe(s) + O2(g) + H2O(ℓ) → Fe(OH)2(s)

    Base your answers to questions 10 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry.

    Baking soda, NaHCO3, can be commercially produced during a series of chemical reactions called the Solvay process. In this process, NH3(aq), NaCl(aq), and other chemicals are used to produce NaHCO3(s) and NH4Cl(aq).

    To reduce production costs, NH3(aq) is recovered from NH4Cl(aq) through a different series of reactions. This series of reactions can be summarized by the overall reaction represented by the unbalanced equation below.

    NH4Cl(aq) + CaO(s) → NH3(aq) + H2O(ℓ) + CaCl2(aq)
