The ions come together in a solution, and the solid compound that is formed falls out of the solution. This reaction is also called a double replacement reaction.<\/p>\n<p>In a double replacement reaction, two ions switch places. One ion leaves the solution and one ion joins the solution. This reaction is also called a displacement reaction.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Acid-Base_or_Neutralization_Reaction\"><\/span>Acid-Base or Neutralization Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When an acid and a base react, they produce a salt and water. The acid and base neutralize each other, and the salt is the result of their reaction.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Oxidation-Reduction_or_Redox_Reactions\"><\/span>Oxidation-Reduction or Redox Reactions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Redox reactions are chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. In a redox reaction, one atom loses electrons (oxidation) and another atom gains electrons (reduction).<\/p>\n<p>Redox reactions are important in biology. For example, photosynthesis is a redox reaction in which electrons from water are used to produce glucose.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Combustion_Reaction\"><\/span>Combustion Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The combustion reaction of propane is:<\/p>\n<p>C 3 H 8 (g) + 5O 2 (g) \u2192 3CO 2 (g) + 4H 2 O(g)<\/p>\n<p>This equation shows that one mole of propane will produce three moles of carbon dioxide and four moles of water.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Synthesis_Reactions\"><\/span>Synthesis Reactions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The synthesis of a new molecule from two or more smaller molecules is called a synthesis reaction.

The two molecules that join together are called the reactants, and the larger molecule that is formed is called the product.<\/li>\n<li>One common type of addition reaction is the reaction between an alcohol and a hydrogen halide to form an alkyl halide. In this reaction, the alcohol molecule loses a hydrogen atom and the hydrogen halide molecule gains a hydrogen atom.<\/li>\n<li>The reaction between ethanol and hydrogen chloride to form ethyl chloride is an example of an addition reaction.<\/li>\n<li>Another common type of addition reaction is the reaction between an alkene and a hydrogen halide to form an alkyl halide. In this reaction, the alkene molecule loses a hydrogen atom and the hydrogen halide molecule gains a hydrogen atom.<\/li>\n<li>The reaction between ethene and hydrogen chloride to form ethyl chloride is an example of an addition reaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Decomposition_Reaction\"><\/span>Decomposition Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction in which one molecule splits into two or more molecules.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Classification_of_Decomposition_Reaction\"><\/span>Classification of Decomposition Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are five types of decomposition reaction:<\/p>\n<p>1.

Thermal Decomposition Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Thermal decomposition reactions are chemical reactions that occur when a substance is heated to the point where it breaks down into two or more simpler substances.<\/p>\n<p>Some common thermal decomposition reactions are the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen, the decomposition of ammonia into nitrogen and hydrogen, and the decomposition of calcium carbonate into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Electrolytic_Decomposition_Reaction\"><\/span>2. Electrolytic Decomposition Reaction:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In an electrolytic decomposition reaction, a compound is broken down into its component elements by the passage of an electric current.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in the electrolysis of water, the water molecule is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen gas.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Photo_Decomposition_Reaction_or_Photolysis\"><\/span>3. Photo Decomposition Reaction or Photolysis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This reaction is the decomposition of a molecule into smaller molecules by the absorption of light.

In a double decomposition reaction, each substance is in a different state of oxidation. For example, in a reaction between potassium chlorate and potassium iodide, potassium chlorate is in the oxidation state of +5 and potassium iodide is in the oxidation state of -1. When they react, potassium chlorate is reduced to potassium chloride (+1) and potassium iodide is oxidized to iodine (+5).<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uses_of_Decomposition_Reaction\"><\/span>Uses of Decomposition Reaction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many uses of decomposition reactions.

Understand the types of decomposition reactions.<\/p>\n<p>There are three types of decomposition reactions: thermal decomposition, photo decomposition, and catalyzed decomposition. Thermal decomposition is the most common type and occurs when a chemical reaction takes place in the presence of heat. Photo decomposition is the result of a chemical reaction that takes place when exposed to light. Catalyzed decomposition is a reaction that is sped up by a catalyst.<\/p>\n<p>2. Understand the factors that influence decomposition reactions.<\/p>\n<p>The type of decomposition reaction that takes place is influenced by the nature of the reactants, the temperature, the presence of a catalyst, and the presence of light.<\/p>\n<p>3. Understand the products of decomposition reactions.<\/p>\n<p>The products of a decomposition reaction vary depending on the type of reaction that takes place. Thermal decomposition reactions produce a variety of gases, including hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. Photo decomposition reactions produce light and heat, and catalyzed decomposition reactions produce a catalyst.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chemical Reactions A chemical
