Question

which statement correctly compares synthesis and decomposition reactions? (1 point)
o synthesis and decomposition reactions are both neutralization reactions. synthesis reactions are in the form ab→a + b, while decomposition reactions are in the form a + b→ab
o synthesis and decomposition reactions are both neutralization reactions. synthesis reactions are in the form a + b→ab, while decomposition reactions are in the form ab→a + b
o synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. synthesis reactions are in the form a + b→ab, while decomposition reactions are in the form ab→a + b
o synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. synthesis reactions are in the form ab→a + b, while decomposition reactions are in the form a + b→ab

Explanation:

Answer:

Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. Synthesis reactions are in the form \( A + B \to AB \), while decomposition reactions are in the form \( AB \to A + B \)
