Types of Chemical Reactions Honors Chemistry Mr. Rivas
Types of Chemical Reactions • Combustion Rxn • Synthesis (Combination) Rxn • Decomposition Rxn • Single Replacement Rxn • Double Replacement Rxn • Acid-Base Reactions • Redox Rxn
Combustion Rxn • A substance reacts with O2 to form compounds that contain oxygen atom(s) • General Form: AB + O2 AO + BO or A + O2 AO
Combustion Rxn - Example • The burning of charcoal is an example of a combustion reaction • C(s) + O2(g) CO2(g) • Another important group of combustion reactions is the burning of hydrocarbons (gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons) • Hydrocarbons contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Combustion Rx - Hydrocarbons • One important group of hydrocarbons are the alkanes (hydrocarbons with only single bonds) • They have the general formula: CnH2n+2 Where n is the number of carbon atoms
Combustion Rx - Hydrocarbons • The formula of a hydrocarbon with 4 carbons (n = 4) would then be: C4H2x4+2C4H10 • What would be the formula of a hydrocarbon with 8 carbons? C8H18
Combustion Rx - Hydrocarbons • To name the hydrocarbons we use the following prefixes: • 1 Meta 6 Hexa • 2 Eta 7 Hepta • 3 Propa 8 Octa • 4 Buta 9 Nona • 5 Penta 10 Deca
Combustion Rx - Hydrocarbons • CH4 Methane Natural Gas • C2H6 Ethane • C3H8 Propane BBQ balloon gas • C4H10 Butane Cigarette lighter • C5H12 Pentane • Etc.
Combustion Rx - Hydrocarbons • When hydrocarbons burn they produce: Carbon dioxide and water. • The equation for the combustion of methane is: CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O
Combustion Rx – Single elements • Elements can also combust. Some rapidly: 2Mg + O2 2MgO • Some slowly (Rusting) 4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3 (Catalyst) • These reactions can also be classified as synthesis reactions.
Combustion Rxn - Exercises • Write a balance equation for the following combustion reaction: • Li + O2 Li2O • Ca + O2 CaO • CO + O2 CO2 • Combustion of propane
Combustion Rxn - Exercises • Answers: • 4Li + O2 2Li2O • 2Ca + O2 2CaO • 2CO + O2 2CO2 • C3H8 + 5O2 3CO2 + 4H2O
Combustion Rxn - Exercises • Answer questions Worksheet 9-2: Combustion Reactions The fire acts as the activation energy to initiate the combustion reaction
Synthesis Rxn • In this reactions, two or more substances are combined together to form a single more complex compound. • General form: A + B = AB
Synthesis Rxn - Example • The reaction between chlorine gas and sodium: 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2NaCl(s) • Many combustion reactions can also be classified as synthesis reactions: 2H2(g) + O2(g) 2H2O(g) (This is an explosive reaction)
Synthesis Rxn - Example • The formation of acid rain results from synthesis reactions in the atmosphere: 2S(s) + 3O2 2SO3(g) SO3 + H2O H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) • This synthesis reaction started the “Green Revolution” N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) (ammonia)
Synthesis Rxn - Exercises • Write a balance equation for the following synthesis reactions: • K + I2 KI • Sr + O2 SrO • Na + S Na2S • H2 + O2 H2O
Synthesis Rxn - Exercises • ANSWERS: • 2K + I2 2KI • 2Sr + O2 2SrO • 2Na + S Na2S • 2H2 + O2 2H2O
Decomposition Rxn • A single compound produces two or more substances. • General Form: AB A + B
Decomposition Rxn - Examples • When heated, carbonates decompose to form an oxide and carbon dioxide CaCO3(s) CaO(s) + CO2(g) limestone quicklime CuCO3(s) CuO(s) + CO2(g)
Decomposition Rxn - Examples • Hydrogen peroxide slowly decomposes into water and oxygen (light speeds up the decomposition) 2H2O2(l) 2H2O(l) + O2(g) • When heated, sucrose (sugar) decomposes into carbon and water C12H22O11(s) 12C(s) + 11H2O(g)

Single Replacement Rxn • A free element replaces a less active element in a compound. • General Form: A + BC AC + B (If A is more active than B)
Single Replacement Rxn -Examples • Hydrogen in hydrochloric acid is replaced by Zn, a more active element. Zn(S) + HCl(aq) ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) • Bromine in sodium bromide is replaced by Cl, a more active element. Cl2(g) + NaBr(aq) NaCl(aq) + Br l • Copper in copper sulfate is replaced by Mg, a more active element. Mg(s) + CuSO4(aq) MgSO4(aq) + Cu(S)
Li Most Active K Ba Sr Ca Na Mg Al Mn Zn Fe Cd Co Ni Sn Pb H Cu Ag Hg Au Least Active The Activity Series of Metals
Activity Series of the Halogens • Fluorine Most active • Chlorine • Bromine • Iodine Least active
Single Replacement Rxn - Exercises Complete the following reaction. Enter NR if no reaction is predicted. • Cu + AgNO3 • Fe + CuSO4 • Mg + CaSO4 • Br2 + KI

Double Replacement Rxn • The positive ion of one compound combines with the negative ion of the other compound and vice versa. • General Form: AB + CD CB + AD • The solubility rules determine if a double replacement reaction will take place.
Double Replacement Rxn - Example • The silver ion of silver nitrate forms an insoluble compound when it combines with the chloride ion of sodium chloride AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s) • The lead(II) ion of lead(II) nitrate forms and insoluble precipitate with the iodide ion of potassium iodide. Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI PbI(s) + 2KNO3
Solubility Rules • NO3– All nitrates are soluble • Cl–All chlorides are soluble except: • AgCl, Hg2Cl2, PbCl2, and CuCl • SO42– All sulfates are soluble except: • BaSO4, PbSO4, SrSO4, CaSO4, and Ag2SO4 • CO32– All carbonates are insoluble except: • NH4+ and those alkaline metals • OH– All hydroxides are insoluble except: • Alkaline metals, Ba(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ca(OH)2 • S2– All sulfides are insoluble except: • Alkali, alkaline earth metals, and NH4+

Acid-Base Rxn • According to the Brønsted-Lowry theory: • A base is any compound which can accept a proton. • An acid is any compound which can donate a proton. • In an acid-base reaction, an acid and a base will react to form a salt and water.
Acid-Base Rxn – Example • Hydrochloric acid (a proton donor) reacts with sodium hydroxide (a proton acceptor) to form sodium chloride (a salt) and water HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O acid base salt water
Redox Reaction • A REDuction-OXidation reaction is one in which an element is oxidized and another one reduced. • Oxidation is the loss of electrons while • Reduction is the gain of electrons. • Many of the reactions that we have covered are redox reactions.
Redox Reaction - Example • The reaction of Magnesium and chlorine is an example of redox reaction: loses 2 electrons Mg + Cl2 MgCl2 gains 2 electrons
Predicting Chemical Reactions • Several factors such as temperature, pressure, physical state, acidity, etc, influence a chemical reaction. • The only way to determine the results of a chemical reaction is by experimentation in the lab. • Nevertheless, based on our classification of the types of reactions, we can make an educated guess.
