write types of chemical reactions and explain any two of them
Answers
Answer:
The 5 primary types of chemical reactions are:
Combination reaction
Decomposition reaction
Displacement reaction
Double Displacement reaction
Precipitation Reaction
1. Combination Reaction
A reaction in which two or more reactants combine to form a single product is known as a combination reaction.
It takes the form of X + Y → XY
Combination reaction is also known as a synthesis reaction.
Example of combination reaction: 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl
2. Decomposition Reaction
A reaction in which a single compound breaks into two or more simpler compounds is known as a decomposition reaction.
It takes the form of XY → X + Y
A decomposition reaction is just the opposite of combination reaction.
Example of a decomposition reaction: CaCO3 → CaO + CO2
The reaction in which a compound decomposes due to heating is known as a thermal decomposition reaction.
