Types of Reactions

November ____ and ____ , 2013

Types of Reactions
There are 5 different types of chemical reactions. Each of them have a certain format. 1. Synthesis Reaction 2. Decomposition Reaction 3. Single Replacement Reaction 4. Double Replacement Reaction 5. Combustion Reaction

1. Synthesis Reaction
Type of Reaction Synthesis Reaction Format A + B AB Example Na + Cl NaCl

2. Decomposition Reaction
Type of Format Reaction Decomposition AB A + B Example H2O H2 + O2

3. Single Replacement
Type of Reaction
Single Replacement

Format
A + BC AB +C

Example
Ca + NaCl Na + CaCl2

4. Double Replacement
Type of Reaction Format
Double Replacement

Example

AB + CD AC + BD PbCl2 + NaBr PbBr + NaCl

5. Combustion Reaction
A combustion reaction is when all substances in a compound are combined with oxygen, which then produces carbon dioxide and water.

Type of Reaction
Combustion

Format

Example

Compound C2H4 + O4 CO2 combines with O2 + H2O and produces CO2 and H2O

Guided Practice.For Fun

The Dance.Chris and Rihanna were both single. No one was talking about "Chris and Rihanna" being together before the dance. They both go to the dance alone. However, they meet at just the perfect time when Chriss new song is playing. After that fateful meeting no one ever sees Chris without Rihanna, they are forever referred to as "Chrianna" Represent the drama of Chris and Rihanna as a chemical equation. Use C to represent Chris and R to represent Rihanna.

If C and R represent elements can you describe what type of reaction is happening?

The dance continues..

Later that same evening Jay-Z and Beyonce, who have been the couple forever, have a heated quarrel and break up.

Represent the drama of Jay-Z and Beyonce as a chemical equation? Use J to represent Jay-Z and B to represent Beyonce. If J and B represent elements can you describe what type of reaction is happening?

And theres more

Rihanna decides that she wants play hard to get to make sure Chris really likes her. She finds Jay-Z on the dance floor and starts dancing with him. The picture below shows what happened.

Write a chemical reaction for this scenario. Use R to represent Rihanna, C to represent Chris Brown, and J to represent Jay-Z.

 In their blissful state, Chris and Rihanna (CR) try to help Jay-Z and Beyonce (JB) reconcile their differences. After everyone agrees to stop quarreling, Chris asks Beyonce to dance. Jay-Z and Rihanna decided that they will dance together as well.

The end of the night

What type of reaction does this scenario represent?

Represent the drama between Chris, Rihanna, Jay-Z, and Beyonce in a chemical equation. Use CR to represent Chris and Rihanna and JB to represent Jay-Z and Beyonce.

Activity Series
We use the Activity Series of Metals to predict whether a single replacement reaction will occur.

How it Works:
It is used to determine the products of single displacement reactions. The reaction will only take place if the metal wanting to replace the other is higher on the series. Example: Ca + Pb(NO3)2
