Combustion Oxygen reacts and produces CO2 and H2O General Reaction: CxHx + O2 CO2 + H2O
Synthesis, Combination Two or more simple compounds combine to form a more complicated one. A + B AB
Decomposition A complex molecule breaks down to make simpler ones (opposite of synthesis). AB A + B
Single Displacement One element trades places with another element in a compound. A + BC AC + B
Double Displacement The anions and cations of two different molecules switch places, forming two entirely different compounds. AB + CD AD + CB
Redox Reaction Fe is oxidized Cu is reduced OiLRiG Oxidation Is Losing electrons Reduction Is Gaining Electrons Fe + Cu2+ Fe2+ + Cu
Acid-Base React to form “Salt” and Water Example: HBr + KOH H2O + KBr
Balancing Reactions Law of Conservation of Mass - Same number of atoms on each Use coefficients (numbers in front) to balance the equations. ___Al + ___FeCl2 → ___AlCl3 +___Fe 1 Al Al 1 1 Fe Fe 1 2 Cl Cl 3
