What is a Decomposition Reaction?

Back

A chemical reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products. Example: O3 → O. + O2.

What is a Synthesis Reaction?

Back

A chemical reaction where two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex product. Example: P4 + 3 O2 → 2 P2O3.

What is a Single Replacement Reaction?

Back

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

Front

What is a Double Replacement Reaction?

Back

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

Front

What is a Combustion Reaction?

Back

A chemical reaction that occurs when a substance combines with oxygen, releasing energy in the form of light or heat. Example: CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O.
