Synthesis, Decomposition Reactions, and Oxidation-Reduction
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
We explore synthesis and decomposition reactions, showcasing examples like the formation of water and its breakdown into simpler substances. We also clarify that while many of these reactions are redox reactions involving electron transfer, some synthesis and decomposition reactions may not necessarily be redox reactions, as seen in specific examples.

In this video, we delve into the concept of percent composition by mass, exemplified through the compound chloroform (CHCl?), which was once employed as an inhalation anesthetic despite its associated toxicity. By calculating the percent composition for each element within the compound, we gain valuable insights into its composition and its potential effects on health and properties.
