A chemical reaction in which compounds break up into simpler constituents is a reaction?
A chemical reaction that breaks down a compound into simpler products is a decomposition reaction. For example, when electrolyzed, water will be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen gas. Decomposition reactions involve one reactant and multiple products.
What is decomposistion?
In biology the breaking down of organic wastes and dead organisms. In chemistry a chemical reaction is which a compound is broken down into two or more elements or simpler compound.
A process in which complex compounds break down into simpler products is called?
It's a Complex reapition reaction. (Sounds a little weird) Hoped it helped
Which reaction results in the breakdown of a chemical into simpler substances?
cleavage and condensation
A decomposition occurs when a substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances in a chemical reaction.?
breaks APEX
What is the chemical reaction when a complex compound breaks into two or more simpler compounds?
decomposition
What is when the products are simpler substances than the reactant?
A chemical reaction that is classified as decomposition
What kind of chemical reaction breaks up compounds into simpler constituents?
A decomposition reaction breaks up compounds into simpler constituents. The pattern for this reaction is AB --> A + B. An example is the electrolysis of sodium chloride (NaCl) into elemental sodium and chlorine, 2NaCl --> 2Na + Cl2.
What is a compound and are compounds related to molecules?
A chemical compound is a pure chemical substance that consists of two or more different chemical elements which can be separated into simpler substances by a chemical reaction. A molecule is the smallest unit of a compound.
What are substances that can be broken down to simpler substances?
Chemical compounds.
What does biosynthetic mean?
chemical compounds are produced from simpler reagents
What are substances that can be broken down into simpler substances?
Chemical compounds.
What type of chemical equation is2KNO3s --- 2KNO2s O2g?
That's a decomposition reaction. One reactant, two (or more) simpler products.
A chemical reaction in which compounds break up into simpler constituents is a reaction?

In what type of reaction are the products simpler substances than the reactant?
An Exothermic Reaction.
What is the chemical reaction our body uses to break starch down into simpler compound?
This chemical reaction is called hydrolysis.
What type reaction occurs when complex compounds are broken down into simpler substances?
This kind of reaction is called "decomposition".
