Which type of reaction is described by the following equation? Na2O (s) + 2CO2 (g) + H2O (g) produces 2NaHCO3 (s)

If the reaction is going from left to right it would be synthesis, if going right to left it would be decomposition.

Explanation:

Na2O (s) + 2CO2 (g) + H2O (g) = 2 NaHCO3 (s)

Left Side

Na = 2

O = 6

C = 2

H = 2

Right Side

Na = 2

O = 6

C = 2

H = 2

Ok so is balanced already, though initial equation in question had an error in regards to the left hand side the) should have been an O.

Hmm

Na2O (s) + 2CO2 (g) + H2O (g) = 2 NaHCO3 (s)

If it was going from right to left would be decomposition

But going from left to right it would be synthesis
