Identify the reaction type shown and describe the clues that were used to identify it. nh4no3 → n2o + 2h2o

Decomposition Reaction

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Reactions RxNs

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

RxN:   NH₄NO₃ → N₂O + 2H₂O

Step 2: Identify

We have a reactant and 2 products.

Comparing it to the General Forms, we see a AB → A + B  reaction.

Therefore, the given reaction would be a decomposition reaction.

asking the goog might u get an answer

why do the isotopes of a particular element behave differently in nuclear reactions but the same in chemical reactions? chemical reactions involve changes to electrons in an atom; isotopes do not differ in electrons, and so they react the same way during chemical changes.
