Question 12 (1 point) How can you cause a decomposition reaction of water?
O Heat up the water.
O Add salt to the water.
Apply electricity to the water.
If you wait long enough it will decompose on its own.

Apply electricity to the water.

Explanation:

Water can be made to decompose by addition of electricity to it. Electric currents makes water undergo a decomposition reaction into subsequent compounds.

 The reaction equation is given as shown below:

                   2H₂O →  2H₂  +  O₂

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
