Synthesis

Usually a combination of elements to form a compound

Combustion

• anytime something is burning

• Carbon based compound: organic combustion

• Element + O2

Single displacement

• metals replace other metals

• Nonmetals replace other nonmetals

Double displacement

• mixing two aqueous solutions together

• Products generally include other a precipitate, liquid, or gas

Decomposition

• usually involves heating

• Look for common liquids or gases that can be extracted from original compound

Aqueous solutions

• alkali metals (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs)

• Ammonium (NH4)

• Nitrate (NO3)

• Strong acid or strong base

Oxidation

Chemical species lose electrons

Reduction

Chemical species gain electrons

H2CO3

Breaks down into H20 and CO2

Metals + water

Form bases

Nonmetals + water

Form acids

Strong acids

• hydrochloric (HCl)

• Hydrobromic (HBr)

• Hydroiodic (HI)

• Nitric (HNO3)

• Chloric (HClO3)

• Sulfuric (H2SO4)

• Perchloric (HClO4)

Strong bases

• lithium hydroxide (LiOH)

• Sodium, hydroxide (NaOH)

• Potassium hydroxide (KOH)

• Rubidium hydroxide (RbOH)

• Cesium hydroxide (CsOH)

• Strontium hydroxide (Sr(OH)2)

• Barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2)

All of the alkali metals and the heavier alkaline earth metal ions

Acid + Base

Make H2O
