Combustion, synthesis, and decomposition Flashcards
Product of an element + element synthesis reaction
Two element compound, balanced
What is the product of a non-metal oxide + water synthesis reaction
An oxyacid ex, (SO2 + H2O = H2(SO3); Sulfurous acid
Need to balance
What is the product of a metal oxide plus water synthesis reaction
A metal hydroxide ex Na(OH)
What is the product of a non-metal oxide plus a metal oxide synthesis reaction
A salt (ionic compound)
Ex- CaO + SO2 = Ca(SO3) - calcium sulfite
Need to balance
What are the products of a binary compound decomposition reaction
Element plus element
Ex- NaCl= Na plus Cl
What are the products of a metal hydroxide decomposition reaction
Metal oxide plus water
Ex- Na(OH)=
Na2O plus H2O then balance
What are the products of a metal chlorate decomposition reaction
Metal chloride plus oxygen gas
Ex- Ca(CLO3)2= CaCl2 + O2 then balance
What are the products of a metal carbonate decomposition reaction
A metal oxide plus carbon dioxide
Ex- Ca(CO3) = CaO plus H2O then balance
What are the products of an oxyacid decomposition reaction
A non-metal oxide plus water
Ex- H2(SO3)= SO plus H2O then balance
