Answer:

Since the analysis of a compound takes place using light energy or in other words photons therefore such reactions are called photolytic reactions. Example: The decomposition of silver chloride into silver and chlorine is caused by light energy.

More to know:♥♥

The splitting or decomposition of a chemical compound by means of light energy or photons. For example, the photolysis of water molecule in photosynthesis occurred under the influence of light. When photons are absorbed, it causes the hydrogen to bind to an acceptor, subsequently releasing the oxygen.

➢The photolytic decomposition reactions are those which require the presence of light.

Since the analysis of a compound takes place using light energy or in other words photons therefore such reactions are called photolytic reactions.

Example: The decomposition of silver chloride into silver and chlorine is caused by light energy. 2AgCl → 2Ag + Cl2.

OR

➢ A chemical decomposition reaction which takes place in presence of light is called photolytic decomposition reaction.

Example : 2HOCl→2HCl+O2
