A reaction in which heat is released is called an exothermic reaction.
Two substances combine to form a single product, so it is a combination reaction.
A single reactant breaks down into two or more simpler substances, so it is a decomposition reaction.
Silver chloride decomposes in the presence of sunlight, so light supplies the required energy.
On heating, lead nitrate decomposes as 2Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂.
2PbO gives 2 oxygen atoms, 4NO₂ gives 8 oxygen atoms and O₂ gives 2 oxygen atoms. Total = 12.
The coefficient of Cl₂ is 1, so one molecule of Cl₂ is formed from two formula units of AgCl.
Water decomposes to hydrogen and oxygen in a 2:1 volume ratio, so hydrogen occupies twice the volume.
CaCO₃ decomposes into CaO and CO₂ on heating. Decomposition caused by heat is thermal decomposition.
Each unit of XY produces one unit of Y. Therefore, 3 units produce 3 units of Y.
