Question

The given chart was made by the class of Year 6 to show the process of decomposition. What
happens during this process of breaking down into ‘simpler forms of matter’?



A. Nitrogen is released to the soil to help in the Nitrogen Cycle.
B. More dead substances are made polluting the soil.
C. Plants die because of this process.
D. The process harms the composition of the soil.

Answer 1

Answer:

Since all decomposition reactions break apart the bonds holding it together in order to produce into its simpler basic parts, the reactions would require some form of this energy in varying degrees. Because of this fundamental rule, it is known that most of these reactions are endothermic although exceptions do exist.
