Verified by Experts

1) A decomposition reaction is carried out by heating is called thermal decomposition reaction.
2) Eg : `CaCO_(3) overset("heat")rarr CaO+CO_(2)`
3) `2Pb(NO)_(2) overset("heat")rarr 2PbO+4NO_(2)+O_(2)`
4) These two reactions are example for thermal decomposition reaction.
Here, products are formed on heating of reactant.
