what is a synthesis reaction?
any chemical equation with a single product
what is a decomposition reaction?
any chemical equation with a single reactant
example of a synthesis reaction
2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl
example of a decomposition reaction
2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2
One example of a single replacement reaction
Metal replaces metal: Mg + Cu(SO4) → Cu + Mg(SO4)
what is a single replacement reaction?
A chemical equation with an element and a compound on each side of the equation
Another example of a single replacement reaction
replacement of halogens: Cl2 + 2NaI → 2NaCl + I2
what is a double replacement reaction?
A reaction with two ionic compounds as reactants and two new compounds on the products side ; the ions “switch partners”
example of double replacement reaction
Ag(NO3 ) + KCl → K(NO3) + AgCl
what is a combustion reaction?
The products are always carbon dioxide and water and nothing else
example of a combustion reaction
C3H8 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
