Define Synthesis Reaction.

Back

A synthesis reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two or more reactants combine to form a single product.

Front

Define Decomposition Reaction.

Back

A decomposition reaction is a type of chemical reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products.

Front

Define Single Replacement Reaction.

Back

A single replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where one element replaces another element in a compound.

Front

Define 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.
