Types of Reactions You need to be able to identify each type. Synthesis reactions Decomposition reactions Single displacement reactions Double displacement reactions You need to be able to identify each type.
1. Synthesis Example C + O2 O C + O C General: A + B AB
Ex. Synthesis Reaction
Synthesis = join together Predict the products. Na(s) + Cl2(g) Mg(s) + F2(g) Al(s) + F2(g) 2 2 NaCl(s) MgF2(s) 2 3 2 AlF3(s) Synthesis = join together
2. Decomposition Example: NaCl Cl Na Cl + Na General: AB A + B
Ex. Decomposition Reaction
Decomposition = split apart Predict the products. HgO 2KClO3 2 Hg2 + O2 2KCl + 3O2 Decomposition = split apart
3. Single Displacement General: AB + C AC + B Example: Zn + CuCl2
Ex. Single Replacement Reaction
Single Replacement Reactions Predict the products. Cl2 + 2NaBr 2NaCl + Br2 C A B A C B 2HgO + Cl2 2HgCl + O2
4. Double displacement General: AB + CD AD + CB Example: MgO + CaS
Single Replacement Reactions Predict the products. CuCl2 + H2S CuS + 2HCl BaCl2 + Na2SO4 2NaCl + BaSO4
Synthesis Decomposition Single Replacement Double Replacement join together A + B AB split apart AB A + B Single Replacement Double Replacement trade 1 place AB + C AC + B trade 2 places AB + CD AC + BD
