Double Displacement. 2 compounds are reacted together and the first part of each compound will switch places general equation : WX + YZ WZ + YX. There are three types of double displacement reactions:. a reaction that forms a solid a reaction that forms a gas

Double Displacement • 2 compounds are reacted together and the first part of each compound will switch places • general equation : WX + YZ WZ + YX
There are three types of double displacement reactions: • a reaction that forms a solid • a reaction that forms a gas • a reaction that forms water (neutralization)
A reaction that forms a solid: • A common observation during a double displacement reaction is the formation of a solid precipitate • ex. Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2KI (aq) PbI2 (s) + 2KNO3 (aq)
Solubility Table • You have been given a solubility table on the back of your periodic table • To use your solubility table: • Identify the anion in the top row • Identify the cation in the column below the chosen anion • If they have a high solubility then a precipitate will not be formed, if they have a low solubility then a precipitate likely will form.
A reaction that forms a gas: • Sometimes a double displacement produces a gas rather than a precipitate.
A reaction that forms water: • When a reaction takes place through the combination of an acid and a base which results in the formation of water is called Neutralization • Neutralization: the process of making a solution neutral (pH = 7) by adding a base to an acidic solution or by adding an acid to a basic solution
