Types of Chemical Reaction

• Combination a reaction when two or more reactants combined to form a single product.
• Decomposition is is that when single reactant breaks down into simpler ones to form 2 or more products.
• Single displacement is when one element replaces another element from a compound.
• Double displacement is when the positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) of different compounds switches places, forming two entirely different compounds.
• Combustion happens when oxygen combines with a hydrocarbon (compound) containing hydrogen and carbon to form a water and carbon dioxide.
• Acid base reaction is a special kind of double displacement reaction that takes place when an acid base reacts with each other forming water and the other product is salt.
