What type of chemical reaction occurs when Hydrogen peroxide break apart to form water and oxygen gasthings happen?

This is a chemical reaction because it is not possible to rearrange water and oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide after they are split apart (in other words after the chemical reaction has occurred. (And this was also part of the question in my homework so to make it easier Hydrogen peroxide is the reactant, and oxygen and hydrogen are the products.)
