The incomplete reaction \( \text{Ba(ClO}_3\text{)}_2 \rightarrow __ + 3\text{O}_2 \) represents a decomposition reaction, where barium chlorate decomposes into barium chloride and oxygen gas. The other product formed is \( \text{BaCl}_2 \), resulting in the complete reaction: \( \text{Ba(ClO}_3\text{)}_2 \rightarrow \text{BaCl}_2 + 3\text{O}_2 \).
Use the incomplete reaction to complete the activity.Ba(ClO3)2→____+3O2 In one or two sentences, identify the type of reaction that is occurring and identify the other product.
