The generic reaction a + b = c, represents a synthesis or combination reaction, which is a kind of chemical reaction.
<h3>What is a synthesis reaction?</h3>
A synthesis, or combination reaction, is a kind of reaction in which two substances combine to form a bigger molecule.
The generic reaction is:
a + b = c
Some common synthesis reactions are:
- Two elements combine to form a compound.
Fe + S = FeS
- One element and one compound combine to form a compound.
O₂ + 2 SO₂ = 2 SO₃
- Two compounds combine to form another compound.
CaO + CO₂ = CaCO₃
In all the examples above, we can verify that the substances (elements or compounds) combine with each other to form another substance (product).

<span>The metal that would more easily lose an electron would be potassium. It is more reactive than sodium. Also, looking on the periodic table, </span><span>from top to bottom for groups 1 and 2, reactivity increases. So, it should be potassium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
Oxidation means lose of electrons and increase of positive charge so the part which oxidized in this equation is Zn(s) because it converted to Zn²⁺ (i.e. lost two electrons)
Here's an example of a bar graph.
