Common Reactions

• Incomplete combustion: formation of $CO$ and $H_2O$
• Combination (synthesis): the addition of 2 or more simple reactants to form a complex product
• Decomposition: a reaction where complex reactants broken down into simpler products
• Single Displacement: when an element from a reactant switches with an element of the other to form two new products
• Double Displacement: when two elements from reactants switch with two elements of the other to form two new products
• Acid-Base: when two reactants form salt and water
• Combustion: formation of $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ from a chemical reaction with $O_2$
