Question

Calcium oxide (cao) can react with carbon dioxide (co2) in a synthesis reaction. Select the most likely products of this reaction. Cao + co2 → ? Caco + o2 caco3 ca + co2 + o

Answer 1

The answer is B.) CaCO3

Answer 2

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction is the reaction in which two compounds or atoms combine together to result in the formation of a single compound.

For example, $CaO + CO_{2} \rightarrow CaCO_{3}$

Thus, here CaO and $CO_{2}$ combine together to result in the formation of calcium carbonate compound. Therefore, it is a synthesis reaction.

Therefore, we can conclude that the most likely products of Cao + co2 → CaCO3 reaction.
