a combination reaction
The type of chemical reaction where a compound is broken down into smaller substances is called a decomposition reaction. In this reaction, a single compound is broken into two or more simpler compounds or elements.
Decomposition reactions involve a compound breaking down into two or more smaller compounds. This is usually caused by the introduction of some form of energy such as light which breaks bonds between atoms. However, combustion reactions can also involve compounds splitting into simpler ones. A combustion reaction involves a compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and occasionally oxygen atoms reacting with oxygen gas, O2, to form water and carbon dioxide. However, the answer to your question is probably decomposition reactions.
In a reaction where compounds split apart to form smaller compounds, the original compound breaks down into simpler molecules or atoms through bond cleavage. This process typically releases energy in the form of heat or light, depending on the type of reaction.
The reaction would be termed a chemical reaction.
An effervescent tablet dissolving in water is primarily a physical change, as the tablet breaks down into smaller particles and releases gas. However, if the reaction produces a gas (like carbon dioxide) due to a chemical reaction between the tablet's ingredients and water, it can also be considered a chemical change. Thus, it involves both physical and chemical changes.

No. A smaller surface area will slow down a chemical reaction.
Compounds can be decomposed by chemical reactions.

Yes, burning a candle is a chemical reaction. The easiest way to tell if something is a chemical reaction is if heat or light are given of, a new substance is formed, or a colour change happens. Chemical changes are irreversible.Yes, whenever a candle burns, it is a combustion reaction between the carbon compounds of the wick and wax of the candle and of oxygen in the air. These compounds burn to create carbon dioxide and water, and also a few smaller carbon compounds, which is evident as the smoke rising occasionally from the flame. The flame you see and the heat you feel rising off of the burning wick is the evidence of an exothermic chemical reaction.Yes, burning a candle is a chemical reaction.

An exergonic reaction is a catabolic reaction where large molecules are split into smaller molecules in processes such as hydrolysis.
When the products are simpler substances than the reactants, it typically means that a decomposition reaction has occurred. In a decomposition reaction, a compound breaks down into simpler substances, such as elements or smaller compounds. This can be represented by the general equation: AB → A + B.
When a sugar is placed in sodium hydroxide, a chemical reaction occurs which causes the sugar to break down into smaller molecules, eventually forming compounds such as sodium gluconate. This reaction is known as alkaline hydrolysis or saponification.
