39. Types of Chemical Reactions Types of Chemical Reactions Synthesis Reactions Decomposition Reactions Single-Replacement Reactions Double-Replacement Reactions
40. Types of Chemical Reactions What happens when something decomposes? What happens when something synthesizes?
41. Types of Chemical Reactions Synthesis Reaction def: a reaction in which two or more substances combine to form a single compound. Example: A + B AB 2Na + Cl2 2NaCl
42. Types of Chemical Reactions Decomposition Reaction def: a reaction in which a single compound breaks down to form two or more simpler substances. Example: AB A + B H2CO3 H2O + CO2
43. Types of Chemical Reactions Single-Replacement Reaction def: a reaction in which an element takes the place of another element that is part of a compound. Note: the products are a new compound and a different element. Example: A + BC AC + B Zn + 2HCL ZnCl2 + H2
44. Types of Chemical Reactions Double Replacement Reaction def: a reaction in which ions in two compounds switch places. One of the products of this reaction is often a gas or a precipitate. Example: AB + CD AD + CB NaCl + AgFNaF + AgCl
