JAMB: study questions (Inorganic Chemistry)



As promised by KLASSICSENTENCE team to help all our JAMB candidates in preparing for their forthcoming JAMB exams, we do not have plans of not pushing through that promise as such we have taken our time to draft out some study questions to help our audience to prepare for their exam.

NOTE: this is not JAMB questions, we are not in the business of selling fake question in other to make money this is just questions drafted by some Chemistry students University of Nigeria Nsukka to help JAMB candidates test them selves and know how well they have prepared for the exam.
Invite your friends in other to take part in these great preparatory test, for it is penitent for a student to test his/her self before going in for the main exam.

In case you fined any question confusing please use the comment box to state it, one of the admins of KLASSICSENTENCE.COM will clear you or any other member can do so. One can still answer the questions using the comment box. Okey let go
