Question

question 26 of 30
what type of reaction is shown below?
sr(s) + cl2(l) → srcl2(s)
a. displacement
b. synthesis
c. decomposition
d. combustion

Explanation:

In a synthesis reaction, two or more substances combine to form a single compound. Here, strontium (Sr) and chlorine ($Cl_2$) combine to form strontium chloride ($SrCl_2$). In a displacement reaction, one element replaces another in a compound. In a decomposition reaction, a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. In a combustion reaction, a substance reacts with oxygen, often producing heat and light.

Answer:

B. Synthesis
