In a combustion reaction, what are the reactants and products?

• The reactants in a combustion reaction are a fuel and a catalyst, while the products are typically nitrogen and oxygen.

• The reactants in a combustion reaction are water and carbon dioxide, while the products are typically a fuel and an oxidant.

• The reactants in a combustion reaction are a fuel and a reducing agent, while the products are typically sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.

• The reactants in a combustion reaction are a fuel and an oxidant, while the products are typically carbon dioxide and water, along with heat and light energy.

What is the general form of a synthesis reaction?

• A + B → AB

• AB → A + B

• A + B → A + B

• A + B → BA
