Determine the type of reaction: h2o + c16h17nao14 = co2 + h20 + c2h3nao3?
a.) synthesis
b.) decomposition
c.) single replacement
d.) double replacement

The correct option is B) Decomposition.

Explanation:

In a decomposition reaction, a single substance decomposes, producing two or more different substances. That is, two or more substances are formed in this type of reactions from a compound. The atoms that form a compound are separated to give the products according to the formula:

AB → A + B

There are 3 types of decomposition reactions, depending on the external factor that can promote the decomposition of the molecule into simpler substances:

In this case a decomposition reaction occurs, where C₁₆H₁₇NaO₁₄ decomposes to give carbon dioxide (CO₂) and C₂H₃NaO₃.

Another option may have been chemical synthesis, which involves the combination of two or more substances and results in the formation of a substance.  But in this case you can see that the water does not react (it appears in the reagents and in the products). This means that it helps with the decomposition mentioned previously.

So, the correct option is B) Decomposition.

have a great day because if you dont you and i will be sad
