What’s the center or target?
Types of Reaction There are so many
kinds of reactions that occur in nature. To distinguish one reaction from another and to predict the possible products of the reaction, chemical reactions are grouped into four.
Types of Chemical Reactions Combination /synthesis Decomposition Single Replacement Double Replacement
Types: Synthesis Ex. C + O2
CO2
C O O O C O O C O CC O O O C O O C C C OC OOC C OCO OO CO O O OO OO OOO
General:
A + B → AB
Types: Decomposition Ex. 2HgO
O Hg
2Hg →
O Hg

AB → A + B
Types: Single Replacement Ex. Zn + CuCl2

General:

Types: Double replacement Ex. MgO + CaS

this means “produces” or “yields”
Synthesis occur when two or more
reactants interact to form a single product
Decomposition Reactions involve breaking of a large
particle into smaller substance. This indicates that this type of reaction has a single reactant producing two or more products.
Single replacement A more active uncombined or free
element reacts with a compound by displacing the less active metal or nonmetal on in the substance .
