I believe such reactions are called decomposition reactions. Decomposition reactions are reactions that involve breaking down a compound into smaller compounds or individual elements. They involve input of energy in the form of heat, electricity or light to break down the compounds. When light is used the reaction is referred to as photo decomposition while when heat is used the reaction is thermal decomposition reaction e.t.c. The general form of the reaction is AB = A + B.
You need to use Stoichiometry
