It is a reaction in which multiple reactants combine to form a single product.
Explanation:
- A synthesis reaction is one in which a single product is formed by the reaction of multiple reactants.
- They are exothermic reactions because they release energy and heat along with the product formed.
- In these reactions, the reactants will be more than the products and the product would be more complex than the reactants. They can be represented as A + B ------> AB
- Example: Na (Sodium) + Cl (Chloride) ------> NaCl (Sodium Chloride)
