hloo frnd and your answer is as follows........

The reaction is as follows:
        2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2
Thus, we can see that
      2mol KClO3 will produce 3 mol O2
    At STP 1 mol O2 will occupy a volume of  22.4L
Given, 6.72 L of O2 is liberated
    6.72L = 6.72 / 22.4
               = 0.3 mol O2
This will surely require 0.2 mol KClO3
Hence,
         Mass KClO3 required = 0.2 x 122.5 = 24.5g

hope it may helps u....☺☺
