Step-by-step explanation:

Decomposition chemical reactions

Decomposition reactions are really the opposite of combination reactions. In decomposition reactions, a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances (elements and/or compounds).

The decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen gases

and the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide t form oxygen gas and water

are examples of decomposition reactions.
