hydrogen iodide gas breaks down into hydrogen gas and iodine gas during decomposition reaction write a skeleton equation for this reaction

Answer;

HI (g) → H₂ (g) + I₂ (g)

Explanation; Decomposition reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which a single compound breaks down into two or more elements or new compounds. In decomposition reactions a complex substance breaks down into at least two or more simpler substances. They are opposite of synthesis reactions and may require energy to occur. The general formula for these reactions is; AX → A + X

Example; HI (g) → H₂ (g) + I₂ (g)
