Explanation:

Step1: Identify decomposition reaction

A decomposition reaction has one compound breaking into simpler substances.

  • $2H_2O_2

ightarrow 2H_2O + O_2$: 1 compound → 2 simpler substances

  • $CaO+CO_2

ightarrow CaCO_3$: 2 reactants → 1 product (synthesis)

  • $2Mg+O_2

ightarrow 2MgO$: 2 reactants → 1 product (synthesis)

  • $2H_2(g) + O_2(g)

ightarrow 2H_2O(g)$: 2 reactants → 1 product (synthesis)

Step2: Match reaction descriptions

  • Heat required: thermal decomposition
  • Electric current required: electrolysis
  • Catalyst required: catalytic decomposition
  • Single compound reactant: decomposition

Step3: Complete Fe₂O₃ decomposition

Decomposition of $\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3$ (heat) produces Fe and $\text{O}_2$:
$\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 \xrightarrow{\text{heat}} \text{Fe} + \text{O}_2$

Answer:

  1. Decomposition reaction: $\boldsymbol{2H_2O_2

ightarrow 2H_2O + O_2}$

  1. Drag-and-drop matches:
  • reaction in which heat is required: thermal decomposition
  • reaction in which an electric current is required: electrolysis
  • reaction that requires a catalyst: catalytic decomposition
  • reaction where the reactant is one compound: decomposition
  1. Completed decomposition: $\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 \xrightarrow{\text{heat}} \boldsymbol{\text{Fe}} + \boldsymbol{\text{O}_2}$ (selected products: Fe, $\text{O}_2$)
