Answer 2

The chemical reaction in which two or more products formed from a single reactant is known as decomposition reaction.

..

There are two types of decomposition reaction:-

a. Thermal Decomposition

b. Electrolytic Decomposition

..

a. Thermal Decomposition:- Decomposition carried out by heating is called thermal decomposition.

For eg. - When calcium carbonate is heated it decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide release.

..

b. Electrolytic Decomposition:- Decomposition carried out by passing current is called electrolytic decomposition.

For eg. - Water decompose into hydrogen and oxygen by passing current.
