Answer:

The answer to your question is A. Decomposition

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture, we can observe that there is only one reactant that after the reaction are formed two products.

We observe that this is a decomposition reaction.

It is not a synthesis reaction, this reaction is the opposite of a decomposition reaction.

In a single-replacement and double-replacement reaction, there is an interchange of cations between the reactants, this does not happen in the picture.
