1. Classification of Chemical Reactions: The Soap-Opera of Chemistry

2. 5 Main types of reactions
Synthesis- “Love at first sight”
Decomposition- “The big break-up”
Single Replacement- “My best friends girlfriend”
Double Replacement- “Revenge”
Combustion- “The player”

3. Synthesis- “Love at first sight”
I like your braces
I like your hat
Hey Sally
Can I get your number
Hey Harry
Basic equation: A+B AB

4. Synthesis- “Love at first sight”
The compound produced is larger and more complex than the reactants
Example: CO2 + 6 H2O C6H12O6 + 6 O2

5. Decomposition- “The Big Break-up”
I was washing my hair
We are Through
Whatever
Where were you last night
But, baby I love you
I don’t believe you
Im leaving
Basic Equation: AB A+B

6. Decomposition- “The Big Break-up”
I am so over you
The Breakdown of a larger compound
Example: 2 H2O 2 H2 + O2

7. Single Replacement- “My Best Friends Girlfriend”
Hey, Baby. How you doing?
This Stinks!
Hey Mark, here comes your friend Pierre
Man, Marks Girl is pretty Hot!
Oh Pierre! Mark Im leaving you
Basic Eqn: AX + B BX + A

8. Single Replacement- “My Best Friends Girlfriend”
“Free” element must be the more reactive element for a reaction to occur ( Pierre is more suave then Mark)
The further apart 2 elements are on the activity series, the more likely the higher one will replace the lower one in a compound.
Example: 2K + 2HCl KCl + H2

9. Double Replacement- “Revenge”
I have to get Pierre back. Hey Chloe do you want to go out
I can’t believe Chloe would do that Ok
Pierre, Im sick of you
Chloe was my one true love, but Marks girl is looking pretty Hot.
Basic Eqn: AX + BY AY + BX

10. Double Replacement- “Revenge”
Always involves the formation of a molecular compound such as water (Tears) and either a precipitate or a gas
Ex: 2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) PbI2(s) + 2 KNO3(aq)

11. Combustion- “The player”
That was a great date
Baby, I love you
Ashley you’re my BFF
Hey Ladies
(3 weeks later)
Basic Eqn: AB + O AO + BO

12. Combustion- “The player”
Honey, Why is Ashley’s number on your phone?
Produce oxide compounds and energy (very exothermic)
Ex: CH4 + 2O CO2 + 2H2O + ENERGY
