Appending two arrays of strings into one [BASH]

Suppose I have two arrays where:

a[i] = "space separated string"
b[i] = "22"

I want to make a third array so that:

c[i]= "${a[i]} ${b[i]}} #appending two string with space between them.

Is it possible without loops?

This is probably the most inefficient way to do it, but here it is without loops:

IFS=$'\n' c=($(paste -d ' ' <(printf "%s\n" "${a[@]}") <(printf "%s\n" "${b[@]}")))

Of course it only works if there are no newlines in the array elements
