Synthesis Reactions
A synthesis reaction involves two or more substances reacting to produce a single product. Reactants can be any combination of elements and compounds:
- two different elements which form a binary compound- an element and a compound which form a new compound- two compounds which form a new compound
The general form of a synthesis reaction is A + B ---> AB
Types of Synthesis Reactions:
Types ExamplesExamples
1) Two different elements form a binary compound1) Two different elements form a binary compound1) Two different elements form a binary compound
a) metal + non-metal form an ionic compound
- transfer of electrons from metal to non-metal- predict the product following
nomenclature rules- Remember that multivalent metals can create
multiple products
b) two non-metals form a covalent/molecular compound
- electrons are shared, so there are no ions to determine the product
Write the balanced equation that shows the synthesis reaction between potassium metal & fluorine gas:potassium + fluorine ---> potassium fluoride2 K(s) + F2(g) ---> 2 KF(s)
Write the balanced equation that shows the synthesis of reaction between iron & oxygen (remember iron has 2 possible oxidation states, 3+ & 2+):iron + oxygen ---> iron (III) oxide4 Fe(s) + 3 O2(g) ---> 2 Fe2O3(s)oriron + oxygen ---> iron (II) oxide2 Fe(s) + O2(g) ---> 2 FeO(s)
Write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction between sulfur & oxygen (common oxide of sulfur is sulfur dioxide):sulfur + oxygen ---> sulfur dioxideS8(s) + 8 O2(g) ---> 8 SO2(g)

- products cannot be predicted with certainly- products formed during the reaction must be
collected and analyzed

a) non-metal oxide with water- forms an ACID
sulfur trioxide + water ---> sulfuric acidSO3(g) + H2O(l) ---> H2SO4(aq)
sulfur trioxide + water ---> sulfuric acidSO3(g) + H2O(l) ---> H2SO4(aq)
b) a metal oxide with water- forms a BASE
calcium oxide + water ---> calcium hydroxideCaO(s) + H2O(l) ---> Ca(OH)2(aq)

Decomposition Reactions
A decomposition reaction involves one reactant compound breaking down into two or more products. Products can be any combination of elements and compounds:
- two different elements- an element and a compound- multiple compounds
The general form of a synthesis reaction is AB ---> A + B
Types of Decomposition Reactions:
Type of Reaction Examples
1) a binary compound decomposes into its elements
magnesium chloride ---> magnesium + chlorineMgCl2(s) ---> Mg(s) + Cl2(g)
2) a hydrate decomposes into an ionic compound and water
barium hydroxide octahydrate ---> barium hydroxide + waterBa(OH)2 * 8H2O(s) ---> Ba(OH)2(s) + 8H2O(g)
3) a metal nitrate decomposes into a metal nitrite & oxygen gas
potassium nitrate ---> potassium nitrite + oxygenKNO3(s) ---> KNO2(s) + O2(g)
4) a metal carbonate decomposes into a metal oxide & carbon dioxide gas
zinc carbonate ---> zinc oxide + carbon dioxideZnCO3(s) ---> ZnO(s) + CO2(g)
5) a metal hydroxide decomposes into a metal oxide & water
potassium hydroxide ---> potassium oxide + waterKOH(s) ---> K2O(s) + H2O(g)
