Predicting Reaction Products

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.

Front

What is the product of the synthesis reaction: K + Cl₂ → ?

Back

KCl

Front

What is the result of mixing NaOH(aq) and Fe(NO₃)₃(aq)?

Back

NaNO₃(aq) + Fe(OH)₃(s)

Front

What are the products of the combustion of ethylene (C₂H₄) with oxygen (O₂)?

Back

CO₂ + H₂O

Front

What happens when mercury (Hg) reacts with copper(I) chloride (CuCl)?

Back

No reaction occurs.

Front

What is the product of the neutralization reaction: HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) → ?

Back

KBr(aq) + H₂O(l)

Front

Define a double displacement reaction.

Back

A double displacement reaction is a type of reaction where two compounds exchange ions or bonds to form two new compounds.

Front

What is the general form of a double displacement reaction?

Back

AB + CD → AD + CB, where A and C are cations and B and D are anions.

Front

What is a 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

What is the product of the decomposition of water (H₂O)?

Back

H₂ and O₂.
