Answer:

Decomposition or cracking

Explanation:

Decomposition reaction is a chemical change in which a single compound is broken down into two or more simpler products.

  For example;

                   A     →    B   +  C

 The driving force of such reaction is the high positive heat of formation of the compound which indicates that they are highly unstable.

Some stable compounds also decompose when subjected to high temperature and pressure.

What is the general form of a chemical reaction
Eddi Din [679]
So there are basically five types of chemical reactions which have their general formulas.

They are:
1. Combination reaction
General formula : A+B = AB

2. Decomposition reaction
General formula: AB = A+B

3. Single displacement reaction
General formula: AB+C = CB + A

4. Double displacement reaction
General formula: AB+CD = CB+AD

5. Acid-base reaction
General formula: A+B = S+W


You should check and compare with examples.

Can some one please help
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Chadwick-he discovered the neutron. He discovered this by demonstrating a neutral particle with a mass the same as a proton through a reaction between gramma Ray's and a wax sample.

Rutherford-he discovered the concept of radioactive half-life, the radioactive element radon, and named alpha and beta radiation.

j.j.Thompson discovered that atoms where made up of smaller components. This had major effects for the field of physics.
