Answer:

Decomposition Reaction

Explanation:

You can determine the type of reaction by writing out a balanced equation.

Solid Potassium Chlorate: KClO3

Potassium Chloride: KCl

Oxygen Gas: O2

Balanced Equation: 2KClO3 -> 2KCl + 3O2

By definition, a decomposition reaction is when a single substance decomposes into two more simpler substances. AB -> A + B

Because the solid potassium chlorate is breaking into two substances, potassium chloride and oxygen gas, it is a decomposition reaction.
