The chemical reaction in which a single product is formed two or more reactants and energy is evolved is known as combination reaction.
Example: 2Mg + O2+Burn → 2MgO
When a single reactant on gaining energy decomposes to give two or more simple products, such a reaction is called a decomposition reaction.
Example:
CaCO3+Heat → CaO+CO2
