C C C C C C C C C C C C C C C C + O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O Synthesis reactions combine substances Example C + O2 CO2 General: A + B AB
Synthesis Example: NaCl Na + Cl General: A + B AB
Hg Hg Hg Hg + O O O O Decomposition reactions break substances apart Example 2HgO 2 Hg + O2 General: AB A + B
Decomposition Examples • Digestion (breaking down food molecules into simpler substances) • Electrolysis of water • Electrolysis—the process by which an electric current is used to produce a chemical reaction • 2H20 (with electricity) 2H2 + O2
+ + Cl Cl Cl Cl Zn Zn Cu Cu In single displacement reactions, elements trade place! Example: CuCl2 + Zn ZnCl2 + Cu General: AX + B BX + A
Ca Ca + + Mg Mg S S O O In double displacement reactions, ions are exchanged between compounds Example: MgO + CaS MgS + CaO General: AX + BY AY + BX
Combustion is a reaction involving oxygen, where heat is released Example: 2CH4 + 4O2 CO2 + 4H2O
Combustion products depend on the amount of oxygen present • If not enough oxygen is present, a combustion reaction may produce the toxic carbon monoxide as a product • Example: 2CH4 + 3O2 CO + 4H2O
