2KClO3 —> 2KCl2+ 3O2 true if balanced or false if not
reaction type 1: synthesis, 2: decomposition, 3: single replacement, 4: double replacement, 5: combustion

a 20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 105 pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffu- sion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface.
