Give an example of each of the following reactions, showing balanced equations for reactants= products and show s, I, g, or aq
A.) synthesis
B.) decomposition
C.) single replacement
D.) double replacement
E.) neutralization
F.) combustion
Repost, with your answers, I will be happy to critique.
A. Synthesis I did
Na(5)+cl-(5) ---->Nacl(s)
B. Decomposition
2H20---->2H+O
If it's right?
A.) Synthesis reaction: In a synthesis reaction, two or more substances combine to form a single compound.
Example: The synthesis of water from hydrogen gas and oxygen gas:
2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)
B.) Decomposition reaction: In a decomposition reaction, a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances.
Example: The decomposition of water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas:
2H₂O(l) → 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)
C.) Single replacement reaction: In a single replacement reaction, one element replaces another element in a compound.
Example: The reaction of zinc metal with hydrochloric acid to produce zinc chloride and hydrogen gas:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
D.) Double replacement reaction: In a double replacement reaction, the positive ions of two different compounds switch places to form two new compounds.
Example: The reaction of silver nitrate with sodium chloride to produce silver chloride and sodium nitrate:
AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)
E.) Neutralization reaction: In a neutralization reaction, an acid and a base react to form a salt and water.
Example: The reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide to produce sodium chloride and water:
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H₂O(l)
F.) Combustion reaction: In a combustion reaction, a fuel reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.
Example: The combustion of propane (C₃H₈), a common fuel, in the presence of oxygen:
C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g)
Note: In this example, "g" represents gas, "l" represents liquid, "s" represents solid, and "aq" represents aqueous (dissolved in water).
