Decomposition involves chemical reactions and as a rough approximation, for many chemical reactions happening at around room temperature, the rate of reaction doubles for every 10°C rise in temperature.
The reason for this is that for chemical reactions to happen, at the smallest scale, the individual chemical molecules have to bump into one another. As molecules warm up they begin to vibrate more and the chances of them bumping in to one another increases - the more bumps that happen, the faster the reactions go.

What are the factors that affect the speed of fruit decomposition?
Factors like bacteria and dirt present, air exposure, if it is covered in lemon juice etc. ,what's in the air and any bugs around.
How do i speed up YouTube?
You can't deliberately "speed up" You Tube so if it's acting up, maybe you should repair your/get a new computer.
When entering an expressway what should you speed up to?
If you have an acceleration lane you should accelerate to the flow of traffic and merge into traffic.
What is the musical word for speed up?
accelerando
Who sings going up the country?
Canned Heat
How does presence of light affect the rate of decomposition?
light will produces heat which will speed up the rate of decomposition.
What would speed up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?
Increasing the temperature or adding a catalyst such as manganese dioxide can speed up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
What is the effect of heat on decomposition?
Heat speeds up the decomposition process
Does hyena speed up decomposition?
You could say that, if you consider eating dead animals to be speeding up decomposition.
Does salt speed up decomposition?
No, it slows it down.
Does heat help decomposition?
Yes, heat can help speed up the decomposition process by increasing the activity of microorganisms that break down organic matter. However, extremely high temperatures can also kill off these microorganisms and slow down decomposition. The optimal temperature for decomposition usually ranges between 90-140°F (32-60°C).
What is it called when heat breaks up a substance?
Thermal Decomposition
How can I speed up the decomposition of leaves?
To speed up the decomposition of leaves, you can shred them into smaller pieces, keep them moist, and turn them regularly to provide oxygen for the decomposition process. Adding nitrogen-rich materials like grass clippings or manure can also help accelerate the decomposition process.
How do you speed up decomposition?
Warmth usually speeds decomposition. Also burying what you want decomposed will expose it to more bacteria and insect activity which will also speed it along.
How can I effectively heat up compost in winter?
To effectively heat up compost in winter, you can insulate the compost pile with materials like straw or leaves, turn the pile regularly to introduce oxygen, and add nitrogen-rich materials like kitchen scraps to speed up decomposition and generate heat.
Does algae speed up the rate of decomposition?
No. It is neither a bacteria nor a fungi.
What could be done to increase the rate of decomposition of CaCO3?
Just heat it up.
