Decomposition reaction is mainly useful in extracting pure metals from their ores
1. Thermal decomposition is used for the production of calcium oxide (quick lime) from calcium carbonate which is a major constituent of cement.

Reaction Involved-
CaCO3 (s) → CaO (s) + CO2 (g)

2. Through electrolytic decomposition metals are extracted. Example sodium from sodium chloride.
Molten sodium chloride on passing electricity is dissociated to sodium metal and chlorine gas.

Reaction Involved-
2NaCl → 2Na + Cl2

3. Aluminium is also electrolytically extracted from its ore bauxite (Al2O3). In the process crushed bauxite is treated with concentrated NaOH to form sodium tetrahydroxoaluminate.

Reaction Involved-
Al­2O3 (impure) + 2H2O + 3H2O → 2NaAl(OH)4

Impurities do not react with sodium hydroxide and are separated through filtration. Tetrahydroxoaluminate is cooled and seeded with previously formed aluminium hydroxide.
NaAl(OH)4 → Al(OH)3 + NaOH

Pure aluminium oxide is made by heating aluminium hydroxide to temperature 1100 to 1200̊ C.
2Al(OH)3 → Al­2O3 + 3H2O

This pure aluminium oxide is then decomposed elecrtolytically to obtain aluminium metal which is used in air crafts, utensils, power cables etc.
