They certainly can. However, they have other groups that are used to classify a compound.
C
Decomposition is of this form: A becomes B+C ... so after the reaction, the element A DECOMPOSES into two smaller elements, B and C.
Synthesis is the opposite: B+C becomes A AFTER THE REACTION.
Hope that helps :))
Answer:
Explanation:
Unclear question.
I infer you want a clear rendering, which reads;
A 258.4 g sample of ethanol (C2H5OH) was burned in a calorimetric pump using a Dewar glass. As a consequence, the water temperature rose to 4.20 ° C.
If the heat capacity of the water and the surrounding glass was 10.4 kJ / ° C, calculate the heat of combustion of one mole of ethanol.
Put a picture we can’t see the arrow
A measure of thermal energy transferred between two different bodies at different temperatures would be the correct answer. So, the third option.
