Types Of Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
Decomposition
A
1 Reactant, requires heat
Acid -> nonmetal oxide + water
Base -> metal oxide + water
Metal chlorate -> metal chloride + oxygen
2
Q
Single Displacement
A
1 element switches places
Element + cpd -> element + cpd
3
Q
Double Displacement
A
2 elements/ions switches places
Cpd + cpd -> cpd + cpd
4
Q
Combustion
A
To burn
Always need O2
Hydrocarbon + O2 -> CO2 + H2O + heat
5
Q
Exothermic
A
Gives off energy, temperature increases, (heat, light, electricity)
6
Q
Endothermic
A
Absorbs energy, temperature decreases
7
Q
Synthesis / Combination
A
1 Product
Nonmetal oxide+water -> acid
Metal oxide+water -> base(metal + OH)
