Question

What are the products of the following decomposition reaction?
Metal chlorate ⟶ ??

  1. Element + element
  2. Metal oxide + water
  3. Metal chloride + oxygen
  4. Metal oxide + carbon dioxide

hintHint:

A decomposition reaction can be defined as a chemical reaction in which one reactant breaks down into two or more products. 

The correct answer is: Metal chloride + oxygen


    The products of the following decomposition reaction are metal chlorate ⟶ Metal chloride + oxygen.
    • Metal chlorates also decompose when heated.
    • In this type of decomposition reaction, a metal chloride and oxygen gas are the products.
    • Here, again, M represents the metal.
    • 2 MClO3 → 2 MCl+ 3O
