A new compound is formed by the combination of simpler reactants, such as nitrogen dioxide and oxygen combine (a component of smog) forming in the atmosphere. This is a ​ (a)  

• synthesis reaction

• decomposition reaction

• combustion reaction

Answer explanation

The question describes a process where simpler reactants, nitrogen dioxide and oxygen, combine to form a new compound. This is a characteristic of a synthesis reaction, where two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex substance. Therefore, the correct answer is 'synthesis reaction'.

Match the following Reaction types

• Synthesis

• 6CO₂ + 6H₂0 + light energy --> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

• Single replacement

• Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) --> ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂

• Combustion

• CH₃CO₂H +H₂O --> CH₃CO₂^- + H₃O⁺

• Decomposition

• C₆H₁₂O₆(s) + O₂ (g) --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O(l) + heat

• Acid-Base

• 2H₂O₂ + light --> 2H₂0 + O₂
