    Here are the key differences between combustion and thermal decomposition reactions: Combustion reactions: - Involve oxidation (reaction with oxygen) - Release energy in the form of heat and light - Common reactants are fuels like hydrogen, carbon, hydrocarbons - Products include oxides of the fuel element and water Thermal decomposition reactions: - Do not involve oxidation, they are decomposition reactions - Do not release light, just heat - Break down a single compound into simpler substances when heated - Common reactants are carbonates, hydrates, hydroxides - Products do not include oxygen or water In summary, combustion reactions involve oxidation and release energy as heat and light, while thermal decomposition
