Chemical Reactions Flashcards
Is a written representation of a chemical reaction
Chemical equation
Types of chemical reactions
1) SYNTHESIS / DIRECT COMBINATION REACTION
2) DECOMPOSITION/ ANALYSIS REACTION
3) SINGLE DISPLACEMENT REACTION ( SUBSTITUTION)
4) DOUBLE DISPLACEMENT REACTION (METATHESIS)
5) COMBUSTION REACTON
6) ACID - BASE REACTION (NEUTRALIZATON)
It is a chemical process in which two or more simple elements or compounds combine to form a more complex product. It is represented by the equation: A + B → AB
synthesis reaction, also known as a direct combination or combination reaction
A ___ is a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. The general form is: AB→A+B
decomposition reaction
A ____, occurs when one element replaces another in a compound, with the general form A + BC → AC + B
single displacement reaction
A ___ is a reaction in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds. The reaction is: AB+CD→AD+CB.
double-displacement reaction
Involving a fuel reacting with oxygen, are typically represented by chemical equations showing reactants (fuel + oxygen) on the left and products (carbon dioxide and water) on the right, with an arrow indicating the reaction.
Combustion reactions
A ___ is when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt and involves the combination of H+ ions and OH- ions to generate water.
neutralization reaction
These are the starting materials that undergo a chemical change to form products.
reactants
These are the substances that are formed as a result of a chemical reaction.
Products
___ shows the process
Arrows
