Can molecules be broken down into simpler substancers?

Molecules are simply atoms bonded together, so yes, they can be broken down into atoms. Such as a water molecule, which is made from two hydrgen and one oxygen, and can be broken down into those atoms.


Can water be further broken down into other chemicals?

I would imagine that due to water being a molecule consisting of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom that breaking it down into these atoms is possible.
