Types of Chemical Reactions
Identifying Synthesis, Decomposition, Combustion, and Neutralisation reactions.
Key Concepts
- Synthesis: A + B -> AB
- Decomposition: AB -> A + B
- Neutralisation: Acid + Base -> Salt + Water
- Combustion: Hydrocarbon + O2 -> CO2 + H2O
Example Formulas & Reactions
NeutralisationHCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
CombustionCH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
