The characteristics of a synthesis reaction are:

  • can be described with A + B = AB
  • Synthesis reactions release energy in the form of heat and light, so they are exothermic
  • Example: 2Na + Clâ‚‚ = 2NaCl
  • (E.g., 1, but simpler): Na (sodium) + Cl (chloride) = NaCl (sodium chloride or salt)
