5 Types of Reactions
Example: synthetic material, photosynthesis decomposition- means to something down starts out as 1 whole and breaks into 2 or more EX: decomposing (dead) animals or garbage
5 Common Reaction Types: -synthesis -decomposition -combustion -single displacement -double displacement Combustion-burning
actual example:
5 Common Reaction Types: -synthesis -decomposition -combustion -single displacement -double displacement single displacment- 1 switch
one element switches or hops to another partner
5 Common Reaction Types: -synthesis -decomposition -combustion -single displacement -double displacement double displacment- 2 switch
2 elements switch or change partners
5 Types of Chemical Reactions Guess which common reaction type: 4Fe + 3O2 2 substances Fe2O3 1 product
synthesis
A skinny bird (reactant) and the worm (reactant) combine to make one product..one fat bird.
combine to form
combine to form
carbonic acid
decomposition
1) water can be broken down into hydrogen gas & oxygen gas
the egg (the reactant), which contained the turtle at one time, now has opened and the turtle (product) and egg shell (product) are now two separate substances.
2HgO
2Hg + O2
Zn + 2HCL
ZnCl2 + H2
Single Displacement
5 Types of Chemical Reactions Single Replacement Reaction Contd: The chemical equation for this single replacement reaction looks like: reactant + reactant -----> product + product
Zn + 2HCL
ZnCl2 + H2
the guy in the orange shirt steals the date of the other guy.
So, a part of one of the reactants trades places
AgNo3 + NaCl
AgCl + NaNo3
double displacement
a reaction in which the elements in two compounds are exchanged parts of two compounds switch places to form two new compounds Two reactants yield two products.
they
switch partners
AX + BY AY + BX
The chemical equation for double replacement reaction looks like: reactant + reactant -----> product + product
two new compounds--silver chloride & sodium nitrate are formed WHY? because the sodium and silver switched places
