What is a synthesis reaction?

• A synthesis reaction is when a single substance breaks down into two or more products.

• A synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction where two or more substances combine to form a single product.

• A synthesis reaction is a process where substances are mixed without any chemical change.

• A synthesis reaction involves the exchange of ions between two compounds.

Give an example of a decomposition reaction.

• H2 + O2 -> H2O

• CaCO3 -> CaO + CO2

• C6H12O6 -> 2 C2H5OH + 2 CO2

• NaCl -> Na + Cl2

What occurs during a single replacement reaction?

• One element replaces another in a compound.

• Elements combine to form a new compound.

• A compound decomposes into its elements.

• Two compounds exchange elements.

Describe a double replacement reaction.

• A double replacement reaction involves the combination of two elements to form a single compound.

• A double replacement reaction occurs when two gases react to produce a liquid.

• A double replacement reaction is when one compound decomposes into two simpler substances.

• A double replacement reaction is a chemical reaction where two compounds exchange ions to form two new compounds.

What is the main characteristic of redox reactions?

• The formation of new compounds.

• The release of energy without electron transfer.

• The change in temperature of the reaction mixture.

• The transfer of electrons between species.

Identify the products of the synthesis reaction between hydrogen and oxygen.

• Water (H2O)

• Carbon dioxide (CO2)

• Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)

• Methane (CH4)

What type of reaction is represented by the equation AB → A + B?

• Single replacement reaction

• Decomposition reaction

• Double replacement reaction

• Synthesis reaction

In a single replacement reaction, what happens to the more reactive element?

• The more reactive element is consumed without effect.

• The more reactive element combines with the less reactive element.

• The more reactive element remains unchanged.

• The more reactive element displaces the less reactive element.

Provide an example of a double replacement reaction involving an acid and a base.

• H2SO4 + KOH → K2SO4 + H2O

• NaCl + H2O → NaOH + Cl2

• HNO3 + CaCO3 → Ca(NO3)2 + CO2

• HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O

How do you identify a redox reaction in a chemical equation?

• A redox reaction involves only the transfer of electrons without any change in oxidation states.

• A redox reaction is characterized by the formation of a precipitate during the reaction.

• A redox reaction occurs when two substances react to form a gas without any change in oxidation states.

• A redox reaction involves changes in oxidation states, with one element being oxidized and another being reduced.
