__**Reaction Types**__
There are five different types of reactions: Synthesis, Decomposition, Combustion, Single Displacement, and Double Displacement. Synthesis is a type of reaction in which 2 elements combine to form 1 new compound. Decomposition is a type of reaction in which 1 compound ends up separating into 2 single elements. Combustion is a type of reaction in which there is heating and sometimes light involved and the product consists of H2O and CO2. Single Displacement is a type of reaction in which a single element reacts with a compound and the single elements swaps places with an element in the compound. Double Displacement is a reaction in which 2 compounds react and 2 of the elements swap places to form 2 new compounds.
