<span>The two methods that can be used do break down compounds into simpler substances or smaller units, are known as Hydrolysis and Photolysis. 

Hydrolysis uses water to split a molecule. Water is used to break the bonds of a molecule. There are three main types of hydrolysis:</span>1. acid hydrolysis2. base hydrolysis 3. salt hydrolysis

Photolysis uses energy from light to split molecules.  This energy is called photons. As in hydrolysis, photons are used to break the bonds of a molecule. Photolysis is a chemical reaction.

<span>Photolysis and hydrolysis. These are two methods that can be used to break down a compound into simpler substances and smaller units.

Water which is used to break the bonds of molecules and split molecules is used from hydrolysis. Hydrolysis is made of three types which include;
1. salt hydrolysis.
2. acid hydrolysis.
3. Base hydrolysis.
 Photolysis is well known to use energy from light to split the molecule and the same energy is referred to as photons which are used to break builds of molecules.</span>

Using solubility guidelines, predict whether each of the following compounds is soluble or insoluble in water.
seraphim [82]
<span>1. MgBr2

Soluble.

Rule: all the binary compounds of the group 17 (different to F) with metals are solubles, except those formed with Ag, Hg (I) and Pb.

2. PbI2

Insoluble.

Rule: it is one of the exceptions stated in the rule above.

3. (NH4)2CO3

Soluble.

Rule: salts containing NH4(+) are soluble.

4. ZnSO4

Soluble

Rule: </span><span>This salt is not an exception to the rule that most sulfate salts are soluble. Important exceptions to this rule include BaSO4, PbSO4, Ag2SO4 and SrSO4

5. Sr(OH)2

Soluble (slightly soluble).

Rule: </span><span>Hydroxide salts of Group II elements (Ca, Sr, and Ba) are slightly soluble</span>
