Ronin Saunders · Answer 1

A combination or synthesis reaction is one, where a new product is synthesized by combination of two or three reactants.

Decomposition reaction is one, where one compound decomposes or breaks into two or more different products.

An acid and a base combines to give salt and water. This reaction is called as a neutralization reaction or just acid-base reaction.
