Question

What type of reaction occurred between the zinc and iodine? (Synthesis, decomposition simgile

replacement, or double replacement)

Answer 1

Synthesis reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

• A synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which two or more elements or small compounds combine to form a large compound.
• For example, a reaction between zinc and iodine to form zinc iodide is an example of a synthesis reaction.
• Decomposition reactions, on the other hand, are opposite of synthesis reactions in which a large compound is broken down to individual elements or smaller compounds.
