Types of Chemical Reactions How can the five major types of reactions be classified?
Synthesis or Combination • Synthesis/Combination = falling in love • When you fall in love, 2 separate people come together and form a couple • 2 different elements joining together to make a compound
Synthesis 2 Mg + O2 2 MgO 2 Na + Cl2 2 NaCl
Decomposition • Decomposition = breaking up • A couple breaks up and become single again
Decomposition 2 KClO32 KCl + 3 O2
Single Replacement or Displacement • Single Displacement = the player • The player already has a girlfriend, but sees a prettier girl and decides to dump his girlfriend for the prettier girl OR cutting in to dance with someone else • Reactivity series (higher replaces lower) p. 333 and pg. 7 Reference Table
Single Replacement 2 Li + MgI2 2 LiI + Mg O2 + 4 NaCl 2 Na2O + 2 Cl2
Double Displacement • Double Displacement = switch • 2 couples switch partners at a dance
Double Replacement 2 AgNO3 + H2S Ag2 S + 2 HNO3
Combustion • Always involves oxygen • hydrocarbon + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water
