Answer 2

Answer:

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.

Examples: Photo decomposition is a chemical reaction in which a substance is broken down into simple substances by exposure to light (photons).
