Question

What is thermal, photolytic and electrolysis decomposition?

Answer 1

1.electrolysis- decomposition because of electricity.
e.g. 2H2O = 2H2 + O2
2. thermal- decomposition because of heat.
e.g. 2Pb(NO3)2 = 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2
3. photolytic- decomposition because of light (sunlight).
e.g. 2AgCl = 2Ag + Cl2
