TEACHING REACTION TYPES

There are various ways to classify chemical reactions. the five basic reaction types are //Synthesis, Decombustion, Single Displacement, Double Displacement// and //Combustion//. **Synthesis** (ake combination), takes place when two unique more simple molecules combine to form a somewhat more complex molecule. **Decombustion** happens when a highly complex molecule breaks down into two simpler unique molecules or substances. **Single - Displacement** takes place when amorereactve metal changes with a less reactive metal, consequently leaving a compound with the more reactive metal and the lesser by its lonsome. **Double - displacement** takes place when two molecules with two reactive metal switch places ultimatly changing both molecules. Finally a **Combustion** reaction occurres when oxygen quickly combines with a substance to produce one or more oxides.
