Thermal decomposition , as we have studied in the First Chapter raising the temperature of a solid causes its melting into a liquid form , but in some substances before melting , another process might happen which is the breaking down of the substance into more simple compounds
In our example here the calcium carbonate (limestone) here is broken down into Calcium oxide ( lime) and carbon dioxide gas produced
since heat is used we call this decomposition ➡️ Thermal decomposition
