Decomposition Reactions starts at 9 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Decomposition Reactions.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
Calculate the mass of oxygen produced when 24.5 g of potassium chlorate (KClO3) decomposes completely. (Molar mass of KClO3 = 122.5 g/mol)
