1. Types of Chemical Reactions Prentice-Hall Chapter 11.2 Dr. Yager

2. Objectives  Describe the five general types of reactions.  Predict the products of the five general types of reactions.

3. There are five general reaction types:  combination  decomposition  single-replacement  double-replacement  combustion

5. A combination (or synthesis) reaction is a chemical change in which two or more substances react to form a single new substance.

6. Mg(s) + N 2 (g) Mg 3 N 2 (s) 3Mg(s) + N 2 (g) Mg 3 N 2 (s)

7. A decomposition reaction is a chemical change in which a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products.

9. HI H 2 + I 2 2HI H 2 + I 2

10. A single-replacement reaction is a chemical change in which one element replaces a second element in a compound.

11. The activity series of metals lists metals in order of decreasing reactivity.

13. Fe (s) + Pb(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) Fe(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + Pb (s) Cl 2 (aq) + 2NaI (aq) 2NaCl (aq) + I 2 (aq) Ca (s) + 2H 2 O (l) Ca(OH) 2 (aq) + H 2 (g)

14. A double-replacement reaction is a chemical change involving an exchange of positive ions between two compounds.

16. a. 3NaOH(aq) + Fe(NO 3 ) 3 (aq) Fe(OH) 3 (s) + 3NaNO 3 (aq) b. 3Ba(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + 2H 3 PO 4 (aq) Ba 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (s) + 6HNO 3 (aq)

17. A combustion reaction is a chemical change in which an element or a compound reacts with oxygen, often producing energy in the form of heat and light.

19. C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O

20. How can you predict the products of the five general types of reactions? The number of elements and/or compounds reacting is a good indicator of possible reaction type and thus possible products.
