The general formula for a decomposition reaction is shown as option C. AB - > A + B. This type of reaction is simply when a complex compound and or substance is broken down to form its substituent atoms of their respective elements. It is energy releasing as compounds are broken down and is the inverse of a synthesis type of chemical reaction.
