What is complete combustion?

Back

Complete combustion occurs when there is plenty of oxygen available for a fuel to react with, resulting in the production of carbon dioxide and water.

What is the general formula for a decomposition reaction?

Back

The general formula for a decomposition reaction is AB → A + B.

Front

Identify the type of chemical reaction: 3Ca + 2AlCl3 → 3CaCl2 + 2Al

Back

This is a Single displacement reaction.

Front

What is a synthesis reaction?

Back

A synthesis reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two or more reactants combine to form a single product, represented as A + B → AB.

Front

What is a single replacement reaction?

Back

A single replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where one element replaces another in a compound, represented as A + BC → AC + B.

Front

What is a double replacement reaction?

Back

A double replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds exchange ions or bonds to form two new compounds, represented as AB + CD → AC + BD.

Front

What is combustion?

Back

Combustion is a chemical reaction that occurs when a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen, producing heat and light, typically resulting in the formation of carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What is the difference between complete and incomplete combustion?

Back

Complete combustion occurs with sufficient oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water, while incomplete combustion occurs with limited oxygen, producing carbon monoxide and/or soot.

Front

What is the general formula for a synthesis reaction?

Back

The general formula for a synthesis reaction is A + B → AB.

Front

What is a catalyst?

Back

A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process.
