Determine the type of reaction: h2o + c16h17nao14 = co2 + h20 + c2h3nao3?
a.) synthesis
b.) decomposition
c.) single replacement
d.) double replacement

The correct option is B) Decomposition.

Explanation:

In a decomposition reaction, a single substance decomposes, producing two or more different substances. That is, two or more substances are formed in this type of reactions from a compound. The atoms that form a compound are separated to give the products according to the formula:

AB → A + B

There are 3 types of decomposition reactions, depending on the external factor that can promote the decomposition of the molecule into simpler substances:

In this case a decomposition reaction occurs, where C₁₆H₁₇NaO₁₄ decomposes to give carbon dioxide (CO₂) and C₂H₃NaO₃.

Another option may have been chemical synthesis, which involves the combination of two or more substances and results in the formation of a substance.  But in this case you can see that the water does not react (it appears in the reagents and in the products). This means that it helps with the decomposition mentioned previously.

So, the correct option is B) Decomposition.

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
