what is thermal,electro and photo decomposition reaction.
Answers
Answer:
Based on the cause of reaction, decomposition reactions are of following type:
∙ Electrical Decomposition: When an electric current is passed through molten or aqueous form of a substance and the substance dissociates into two or more products.
∙ Thermal Decomposition: When decomposition reaction takes place due to heat, it is called thermal decomposition.
∙ Photo Decomposition: When decomposition reaction takes place due to light, it is called photo decomposition.
Answer: Photo decomposition :- Photo decomposition is a chemical reaction in which a substance is broken down into simple substances by exposure to light (photons).
Thermal decomposition :- Thermal decomposition, or thermolysis, is a chemical decomposition caused by heat.
electro decomposition :- means breaking in ions when electricity is passed in a solution
