ID Types of Reactions

Front

What is a Synthesis / Combination Reaction?

Back

A reaction where two or more reactants combine to form a single product. Example: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O.

Front

What is a Double Replacement Reaction?

Back

A reaction where two compounds exchange ions or bonds to form two new compounds. Example: AB + CD → AD + CB.

Front

What is a Single Replacement Reaction?

Back

A reaction where one element replaces another in a compound. Example: A + BC → AC + B.

Front

What is a Decomposition Reaction?

Back

A reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products. Example: 2H2O → 2H2 + O2.

Front

What happens in a Single Replacement Reaction?

Back

One element displaces another in a compound, resulting in a new element and a new compound.

Front

What happens in a Double Replacement Reaction?

Back

The ions of two compounds exchange places in an aqueous solution to form two new compounds.
