Identify the type of reaction described in the sentence below. then, write a chemical equation. be sure to specify the states of all chemicals and balance the equation. phosphoric reacts with oxygen gas, forming solid tetraphosphorus decoxide. (use p as the formula for phosphoric, not p4.

Answer : The type of reaction described in the sentence is Synthesis or Combination

Explanation :

The balanced equation for the reaction between Phosphorous and Oxygen gas can be written as

From the above equation we can see that there are two different reactants ( P and O₂ ) which are combining with each other to give a single product.

This type of reaction is known as Combination or Synthesis.

A general form of Synthesis reaction is given below.

Here we can conclude that a synthesis / combination reaction is the one where 2 or more reactants combine together to give only one product .

the correct answer is option d

explanation:

i was wrong its d because they dont use cm when calculating square roots
