Chemical Reaction Types
📚 Part 1: Understanding Chemical Reaction Types
There are four main types of chemical reactions:
Combustion: A substance reacts with oxygen, releasing energy (e.g., burning methane)
Synthesis: Two or more substances combine to form a new compound (e.g., hydrogen + oxygen → water)
Decomposition: A compound breaks down into simpler substances (e.g., water → hydrogen + oxygen)
Displacement: One element replaces another in a compound (e.g., zinc replaces hydrogen in acid)
