1. What are called combination reaction, decomposition reaction, displacement reaction
and precipitation reaction? Write one equation for each type of reaction,
Answers
Combination reaction :
Two or more reactants combine to form a single product.
Example:. 2Mg + O2 turns to 2Mgo
Decomposition reaction :
A single reactant breaks down into two or more products. in this reaction energy is consumed
Here we have three type
Using Heat Energy :
example: CaCO3 + heat turns to CaO + CO2.
Using Electricity :
example: 2H2O+ Electricity turns to 2H2 + O2
Using sunlight :
example: 2AgCl + sunlight turns to 2Ag+ Br2
Displacement reaction :
More reactive element displaces a less reactive element.
example: CuSO4 + Fe. turns to. FeSO4 + Cu
Precipitation reaction :
Reaction in which presipitate forms
Na2SO4 + BaCl2. turns to. 2NaCl + BaSO4
in which BaSO4 is a white presipitate
the reaction given in preparation reaction is also an example of Double Displacement reaction
NOTE : All precipitation reactions are double displacement reaction but All Double Displacement reactions are not precipitation reactions
