See the explanation below.

Explanation:

#"2H"_2"O + O"_2"##rarr##"2H"_2"O"_2"# #lArr# #color(red)"synthesis reaction"#

#"O"_2 + "2CO"##rarr##"2CO"_2# #lArr# #color(red)"synthesis reaction"#

#"2KClO"_3"##rarr##"2KCl + 3O"_2"# #lArr# #color(blue)"decomposition reaction"#

Notes:
I changed the formula for the product of the first reaction to #"H"_2"O"_2"#. Water is not a correct product when water reacts with oxygen gas. The correct product is hydrogen peroxide.

Synthesis reactions can also be called combination reactions.
