Detailed Solution

Decomposition reactions are chemical reactions where one compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. Examples include:

  • Thermal decomposition – Calcium carbonate → Calcium oxide + Carbon dioxide.
  • Electrolytic decomposition – Water → Hydrogen + Oxygen.
  • Photodecomposition – Silver chloride → Silver + Chlorine (in sunlight).

These reactions show how heat, electricity, or light can break compounds into simpler substances. Each type of decomposition has its own conditions and applications in daily life and industries.
