Decomposition Reaction
A decomposition reaction occurs when one reactant breaks down into two or more products.
This can be represented by the general equation:
AB → A + B
Examples of decomposition reactions include the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen, and the breakdown of water to hydrogen and oxygen.
