what is called decomposition reaction? explain it with any one equation .
Answers
Explanation:
A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. The general form of a decomposition reaction is:
AB→A+B
Most decomposition reactions require an input of energy in the form of heat, light, or electricity.

Explanation:
The reactions in which a compound decomposes to form two or more substances are called decomposition reactions.
There are three types of decomposition reactions
1- Thermal decomposition reactions
2- Photochemical decomposition reactions
3- electrolytic decomposition reactions
When a decomposition reaction is carried out by heating, then it is called thermal decomposition reaction.
A decomposition reaction in which energy is supplied in the form of light, is known as Photochemical decomposition reaction.
A decomposition reaction in which energy is supplied in the form of electricity, is known as electrolytic decomposition reaction.
