Question
Write one equation for decomposition reactions where energy is supplied in the form of light.
Solution
Decomposition reaction involving absorption of light,
- \[\ce{\ce{\underset{Hydrogen peroxide}{2H2O2_{(l)}}}->[Light] \underset{Water}{2H2O_{(l)}} + \underset{Oxygen}{O2_{(g)}}}\]
- \[\ce{2AgCl_{(s)} ->[sunlight] 2Ag_{(s)} + Cl2_{(g)}}\]
