synthesis/decomposition reactions Flashcards
metal + nonmetal
Li + N2
binary salt
= 2Li3N
metal oxide + water
Na2O + H2O
bases (metallic hydroxides)
= 2NaOH
nonmetallic oxides + water
N2O5 + H2O
acids (nonmetal in oxide as a reactant and in the acid as a product keeps the same oxidation number)
= 2HNO3
metallic oxides + nonmetallic oxides
Na2O + CO3
salts (ionic solid)
= NaCO3
metallic carbonates
MgCO3
metallic oxides + carbon dioxide
= MgO + CO2
metallic chlorates
Mg(ClO3)2 =
metallic chlorides and oxygen
MgCl2 + 3O2
ammonium carbonate
(NH4)2CO3
ammonia + water + carbon dioxide
= NH3 + H2O + CO2
sulfurous acid
H2SO3
sulfur dioxide + water
= SO2 + H2O
carbonic acid
H2CO3
carbon dioxide + water
= CO2 + H2O
binary compund
2NaCl
two elements
= 2Na + Cl2
hydrogen peroxide
2H2O2
water + oxygen
= 2H2O + O2
ammonium hydroxide
NH4OH
ammonia + water
= NH3 + H2O
