Explanation:

When a single reactant breaks to produce two or more products, known as decomposition reaction.

During decomposition of a reactant, the reactant need energy to break the reactants to produce products. The energy can be in light or heat or electricity energy.

If the Decomposition reaction require heat energy, then it is called as thermal decomposition reaction.

For example:

\mathrm{CaCO}_{3} \stackrel{\text {Heat}}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{CaO}(s)+\mathrm{C} \mathrm{O}_{2}(g)

If the Decomposition reaction require energy in the light form is known as reaction of photochemical decomposition.

For example:

2 A g C l(s) \stackrel{\text { sun light }}{\longrightarrow} 2 A g(s)+C l_{2}(g)

If the Decomposition reaction require energy in the form of electricity is known as electrolytic decomposition reaction.

For example:

2 H_{2} O(l) \rightarrow 2 H_{2}(g)+O_{2}(g)
