Decomposition;
Explicación
The given reaction is a decomposition reaction. In a decomposition reaction, a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. In this case, aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) decomposes to form aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and water (H2O). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is 2Al(OH)3(s) → Al2O3(s) + 3H2O(l). This means that two moles of aluminum hydroxide decompose to form one mole of aluminum oxide and three moles of water.
