Question

The reaction 2fe + 3cl2 → 2fecl3 is an example of a _____ reaction.

Answer 1

When a non-metal and metal react together it creates a ionic bond.

Answer 2

Answer: Synthesis reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction in which two reactants are combining to form one product.

Example:
`2Fe+3Cl_2\rightarrow 2FeCl_3`

2. Double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place.

Example:
`2NaOH(aq)+(NH_4)_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2NH_4OH(aq)+Na_2SO_4(aq)`

3. Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which fuel is reacted with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.

Example:

`C_6H_(12)O_6+O_2 \rightarrow CO_2+H_2O`

4. Single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its salt solution.

Example:
`Zn+2HCl\rightarrow ZnCl_2+H_2`

5. Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.

Example:
`Li_2CO_3\rightarrow Li_2O+CO_2`
