Answer:

C. Decomposition of water

Step-by-step explanation:

A decomposition reaction occurs when one reactant breaks down into two or more products.This can be represented by the general equation: AB → A + B. Examples of decomposition reactions include the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen, and the breakdown of water to hydrogen and oxygen.

The equation for the decomposition of water; 2H2O --> 2H2+O2
