Types of Chemical Reactions

We are covering 5 basic types. We are not concentrating on acid/base reactions

Types:
1) Synthesis

A + B --> AB

2) Decomposition

AB --> A + B

3) Single Replacement

A + BC --> AC + B

4) Double Displacement

AB + CD --> AD + BC

5) Combustion

Hydrocarbon (gas) + Oxygen (gas) --> Carbon Dioxide + Water
