Rosa was looking for patterns to help predict the products of chemical reactions. She recorded three similar decomposition reactions in the table.

A 2-column table with 3 rows. The first column labeled reactants has entries 2 N a C l O subscript 3, 2 K C l O subscript 3, 2 L i C l O subscript 3. The second column labeled products has entries 2 N a C l + 3 O subscript 2, 3 O subscript 2 + 2 K C l, empty.

What products should she record in the last row of the table?

2LiCl + 3O2
3LiCl + 2O2
2LiO + 3Cl2
3LiO+ 2Cl2

2LiCl + 3O2

Chlorates decompose to the metal chloride and oxygen. Balancing: 2 LiClO3 → 2 LiCl + 3 O2.
