Answer:
4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2
Explanation:
It's a decomposition, but not a simple one.
KNO3 ==> K2O + N2 + O2 I don't usually do this, but I think the easiest way to proceed is to balancing the K and N together. That will require a 2 in front of KNO3
4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2
Now you have (3*4) = 12 oxygens. Two are on the K2O. So the other 10 must be on the O2
That should do it.
