types of reaction Flashcards
(combustion) substance + oxygen
oxides
metal + water
metal hydroxide + hydrogen
metal + acid
salt+ hydrogen
oxide + acid
salt + water
hydroxide + acid
salt+ water
carbonate + acid
salt + water + carbon dioxide
hydrogencarbonate + acid
salt + water +carbon dioxide
ammonia + acid
ammonium salt
metal carbonate (thermal decomposition)
metal oxide + carbon dioxide ( when heated)
neutralisation reaction
acid + base to neutralise acid
(base can be an oxide, hydroxide or carbonate)
precipitation reaction
everything is dissolved in water except one product which is an insoluble solid
( aq + aq -> s + aq)
metal displacement
a more reactive metal will replace a less reactive metal (CuSo4 + Zn -> ZnSo4 + Cu because zinc is more reactive than copper)
halogen displacement
more reactive halogen replaces a less reactive one (KI+ Br2 -> KBr + I2 because bromine is more reactive than iodine)
thermal decomposition
only one reactant ( CaCO3 -> CaO +CO2)
