Answer: Less than

Chemical reactions involve a separation, combination, or rearrangement of atoms.

During a chemical reaction which involves breaking and making a bond some amount of matter is destroyed some are converted to energy. Hence, when sodium and oxygen react to form an ionic compound, the mass of the compound is less the sum of the masses of the individual elements

Which reaction is a decomposition reaction? A. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2 B. 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O C. ZnS + 3O2 → 2ZnO + 2SO2 D. 2NaBr + CaF
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Option A. </u></em><u><em>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</em></u>

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

  • Decomposition reactions
  • Synthesis or combination reaction
  • Single replacement reactions
  • Double replacement reactions
  • Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

  • <u>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</u>

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

  • <u>4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O</u> is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

  • <u>ZnS + 3 O₂ →  2ZnO + 2SO₂ </u>is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

  • <u>2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ </u>is a double replacement reaction because two  ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).
