Combustion
|
reactions with oxygen
ex) 2H2(g)+O2 (g) => 2H2O(l) |
|
Decomposition
|
involves compounds decomposing into simpler substances
ex) H2CO3 (aq) => H2O (l) + CO2 (g) |
|
Single Replacement
|
*It's like someone cuts in while dancing*
ex) Zn (s) +CuCl2 (aq) => ZnCl2 (aq) + Cu (s) |
|
Double Replacement
|
reactions sometimes produce solid particles called a precipitate
*Both dance partners switching with another couple* ex) 2Ag (NO3) + CuCl2 => 2AgCl + Cu(NO3)2 |
