H2O -> H + + OH -
This is the decomposition reaction you are asking about and not unusually done by electrolysis.

A chemical reaction in wich two or more molecules combine to produce water or another simple molecule?
dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction
What is a chemical reaction that breaks down compounds into simpler products?
When chemicals are combined or broken down, they go through reactions. The combination is called a synthesis reaction and breaking down is called a decomposition reaction.
What is it called when a reaction forms water?
There are many different reactions that form water, the combustion of organic molecules, neutralisation reactions to name a few but you could not tell the mechanism of a reaction by that it forms water
What is the difference between dehydration reaction and hydrolysis reaction?
In dehydration, water molecules are removed. Hydrolysis is the opposite of this. In hydrolization, water molecules are combined.
The reaction of an acid with a base will produce a salt What is the other product?
The reaction between a base and an acid tends to produce a salt and usually water (H2O). Salts are ionic compounds that form through a reaction called a neutralization reaction between bases and acids.
A chemical reaction in wich two or more molecules combine to produce water or another simple molecule?
dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction
What is a chemical reaction in which two or more molecules combine to produce water or another simple molecule?
a condensation reaction or a dehydration reaction
What is called loss of water molecules by a chemical compound?
Dehydration reaction.
When large carbohydrates molecules are formed from smaller carbohydrate molecules water is lost what is this reaction called?
The general term is "condensation reaction." "Dehydration reaction" is also appropriate.
How many water molecules will the bonding of four simple sugars produce?
The bonding of sugars is a condensation reaction, producing one water molecule with each reaction. To bond four simple sugars, three bondings are required, which means three water molecules are produced.
What is a chemical reaction that breaks down compounds into simpler products?
When chemicals are combined or broken down, they go through reactions. The combination is called a synthesis reaction and breaking down is called a decomposition reaction.
What is the type of reaction that occurs when complex molecules are formed from simpler molecules and water is removed?
The condensation polymerization takes place by removal of water molecules from organic molecules as formation of Bakelite , Terylene and Nylon. in plants starch is also formed by this mechanism from Glucose molecules.
What is the reaction of an alkene and water in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce an alcohol called?
hydration
What does cohesion produce in water molecules?
water
