A
It is a decomposition reaction and endothermic in nature
B
It is a combination reaction
C
It is a decomposition reaction and accompanied by release of heat
D
It is a photochemical decomposition reaction and exothermic in nature
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
A
It is a decomposition reaction and endothermic in nature because decomposition of `KClO_(3)` requires heat for products formation.
