Explanation:
Combination reaction: It is a reaction in which two reactants combine together to form a single product.
e.g.
(Qiuck lime)CaO + (Water)H 2 O → (Slaked lime)Ca(OH) 2 +Heat
As heat is released in this reaction, so it is exothermic reaction.
Combination reaction ⸻➤
A chemical reaction in which two or more substances ( elements or compounds ) combine to form a single substance is called Combination reaction.
____________________________
The combination reaction are of three types :-
- Combination between two elements: e.g., 2H2(g) + O2(g)⸻➤2H2O(l)
N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⸻➤2NH3(g)
C(s) + O2(g) ⸻➤CO2(g)
- The combination reactions( as shown above) in which a new compound is formed from its constituent elements are also called synthesis reactions.
- Combination between two compounds : e.g., CaO(s) + H2O(l) ⸻➤Ca(OH)2(aq)+ heat . [ CaO - quicklime , Ca(OH)2 - slaked lime).
Note : This is an example of exothermic reaction.
NH3(g) + HCl(g) ⸻➤NH4Cl(s)
[ NH3 - Ammonia , NH4Cl- Ammonium chloride].
Note: The reaction ( between NH3 and HCl ) is used as a test to dectect the presence of NH3. During this reaction, white fumes ( due to the formation of NH4Cl) can be seen.
- Combination reaction between an element and a compound: e.g., 2CO(g)+
O2⸻➤2CO2(g)
2NO(g) + O2(g) ⸻➤2NO2(g).
________________________________
specific Heat capacity ⸻➤
- It is the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance per unit mass. S.I. unit is J/kg K.
