Question

List three different types of chemical reactions, write the generic description, and give a brief description of each.

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Combination or synthesis reaction
2. Decomposition or cracking reaction
3. Single replacement or single displacement

A combination or synthesis is a type of reaction that involves the formation of a single product from tow or more reactants:

            K + J → KJ

The formation of a single compound form the union of their constituent element falls into this category of reaction.

The large and negative heat of formation is the driving force for this reaction.

A decomposition or cracking reaction is one in which  two or more products are formed from a single reactant:

     TK → T + K

The breaking down o a compound into its individual components like elements and other compounds falls into this category.

The driving force for this type of reaction is the high positive heat of formation and instability of the compound.

A single replacement or single displacement reaction is one in which a substance is replacing another.

   TO + P → TP + O

The replacement of a metallic ion in solution by a metal atom higher in the activity series than the metal in a solution falls into this category of reaction.
