Reaction Types Flashcards
This occurs when two or more elements combine to
form a single product.
Combination Reactions
This occurs when a compound breaks into smaller
compounds or elements.
Decomposition Reactions
This occurs whenever a solid (or precipitate) forms or
“crashes out” when two aqueous solutions are mixed.
or
Precipitation reactions produce an insoluble product from two aqueous reactants
Precipitation Reactions (or double replacement)
This occurs anytime an acid and a base are mixed
together to form a salt and water
Acid-Base Neutralization Reactions:
water does not make ion true or false ?
true
This occurs whenever an organic compound or
hydrocarbon and the product is co2+H2O
Combustion Reactions
These reactions occur when the charges of the
metal on both sides change elements change.
also called : redox reactions for
short
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions (single replacement)
oxygen is added to the reactants in oxidation and reduction when :
occur in biological
systems.
