Larry made this picture to represent a chemical reaction:

which of the following statements best explains the type of chemical reaction represented by larry's picture?

a. it represents a synthesis reaction because two reactants form one product.

b. it represents a synthesis reaction because the total mass of the product is less than the mass of the reactants.

c. it represents a decomposition reaction because one reactant breaks apart and forms two products.

d. it represents a decomposition reaction because the same atoms are present in the reactants and products.

Answer : The correct option is, (A) It represents a synthesis reaction because two reactants form one product.

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction : A chemical reaction where multiple substances or reactants combine to form a single product.

It is represented as,

From the given image we conclude that, the molecule X react with molecule Y to give a single product (XY). Thus, this is a synthesis reaction.

Hence, the correct option is, (A) It represents a synthesis reaction because two reactants form one product.
