Reaction Types
There are five different types of reactions, Synthesis, Decomposition, Combustion, Single Displacement, and Double Displacement. Synthesis can be explained by two elements forming together to produce a compound. Decomposition is the opposite and decomposes one compound into the two elements it was made up of. A Combustion reaction always has an element forming with oxygen to create water and carbon dioxide. Single displacement is when one element is forming with a compound which produces a different element standing alone and the other two elements are combined. Double displacement is like this only it has two compounds that switch with each other when the reaction occurs. In the links below the types of reactions are explained in more depth.
