A chemical reaction is defined as the combination of substances called reactants to form a product. The various types of chemical reaction include:

synthesis reaction

combustion reaction

decomposition reaction

single or double replacement reaction

Decomposition reaction is that type of chemical reaction in which the reactant breaks down to form two or more products.

Therefore the heating of lead (II) carbonate is a decomposition reaction.

Write the general chemical formula for an acid, and discuss what each component of the formula represents.

saul85 [17]

The general formula of an acid is HX where H+ acts as the cation while X can be a halogen (Cl-, Fl-, Br-, etc) and acts as the anion. There are also cases where X is an ion like SO42-, which brings two atoms of H in the formula. Strong acids dissociate completely while weak acids do not.
