Thermal decomposition is the process by which chemical bonds are broken in the presence of heat. Decomposition temperature is the temperature at which thermal decomposition occurs, which differs for different compounds.
Gas is produced during fruit decomposition through a process called fermentation. This occurs when microorganisms break down sugars in the fruit, releasing gases such as carbon dioxide and methane as byproducts. As decomposition progresses, these gases accumulate and contribute to the bloating and eventual breakdown of the fruit.
Thermal decomposition
During decomposition, carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary greenhouse gas emitted. As organic matter breaks down, microorganisms consume it and release CO2 as a byproduct of respiration. Additionally, methane (CH4) may also be produced in anaerobic conditions, particularly in waterlogged environments where decomposition occurs without oxygen. These gases contribute to the greenhouse effect, trapping heat in the atmosphere.
During decomposition, most hydrides liberate hydrogen gas (H₂). This occurs as the hydride breaks down, releasing hydrogen while often forming other compounds, such as metal oxides or acids, depending on the specific hydride. The liberation of hydrogen is a characteristic feature of many hydride compounds.

During decomposition, microorganisms break down organic matter, releasing carbon dioxide as a byproduct. This process occurs as the microorganisms feed on the organic material and respire, converting the carbon from the organic matter into carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere.
Methane gas is released, as well as carbon dioxide, during decomposition.
A substance breaks down into two or more simpler substances during a decomposition reaction.
