Purely thermal decomposition of water begins around 1800 degrees Kelvin at 1 ATM. By about 2500 degrees Kelvin, approximately 50% of the water is in a molecular configuration other than H2O. By approximately 3500 Kelvin, nearly 100% of the water has decomposed into atomic H and O.

What is thermal decomposition?
in English it is basically breaking something down using heat --------------- Thermal decomposition is a chemical reaction of decomposition under the effect of high temperature: the compound breaks down into other substances when it is heated. For example: copper(II) sulfide when heated produces copper + sulfur dioxide
What temperature is the water?
Water temperature tells you how cold or hot the water is. If the water is hot, the heat indicates the kinetic energy of the water.
Which of the following has the most difficulty forming ions?
the compounds that are stable and have strong intermolecular forces of attraction will have much difficulty in the formation of ions... they will show least degree of decomposition at very high temperature,, as water at 2000 degree celsius..
How do you fingerprint a decoposed body from water?
With difficulty, depending upon the state of decomposition and decay of the fingers and thumbs.
How accurately can you predict water temperature?
You can predict water temperature accurately by using a water thermometer.
Thermal decomposition and decomposition temperature-is it refer to the same things?
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.
What is the effect of moisture and warm temperature on decomposition?
Moisture and warm temperature speed decomposition. This is a form of abiotic decomposition as it employs a chemical or physical process without the involvement of micro-organisms.
Is there a maximum temperature for a solid to dissolve?
The temperature must be under the decomposition temperature of the substance.
What is a property of a decomposition reaction?
Decomposition reactions always have one complex reactant and two or more simpler products.
Is decomposition of water into its elements a physical process?
The decomposition is a chemical process.
What is the environmental factors that affects the speed of decomposition?
Temperature and moisture.
What is decomposition of water?
the decomposition of water (H2O) into oxygen (O2) and hydrogen gas (H2)
The decomposition of water can be brought about by?
electrolysis
What are products of water decomposition?
H2o
What temperature does sodium hydride decompose at?
Melting and decomposition at about 800 0C.
What are the factors affecting organic matter decomposition?
TEMPERATURE MOISTURE AIR
How can the rate of thermal decomposition of potassium chlorate be increased?
Increase the temperature
