The reaction in which one complex chemical substance is decomposed into two or more simple chemical substances is called decomposition reaction. In decomposition reactions, one reactant breaks into two or more products. The given reaction is a decomposition reaction. Ammonium phosphate is decomposed into sodium phosphate, ammonia and water.
(NH4)3PO4--Na3PO4+H2O+NH3
The reaction opposite to decomposition reaction is synthesis reaction. Moreover, in synthesis reactions two or more chemical substances combine to one complex substance.
