1) Combustion/Burning Reactions:
Reaction of some combustible matters with oxidizing elements like oxygen is called combustion reactions.After these reactions oxidized products are produced. In general,
these reactions are exothermic.To have combustion reaction we must have; combustible matters, oxidizing element and necessary temperature.Examine following combustion
reaction samples;
If compounds including C and H elements burn with necessary O2, products are H2O and CO2.
Example:
2) Combination/Synthesis Reactions:
More than one matters combine and form new matter is called combination or synthesis reactions.
X + Y → XY
2H2(g) + O2 → 2H2O(l)
3) Decompositions/Analysis Reactions:
These reactions are opposite of combination reactions. One compound breaks down to other compounds or elements in decomposition reactions. For example;
XY → X + Y
4. Displacement/Replacement Reactions:
An element reacts with compound and replace with an element of that compound. For example;
Example:
If two elements or compounds replace, we call them double displacement reactions. For instance;
Acidic and basic matters react with and we call these reactions neutralization reactions.
or
When metals react with acids, salt and hydrogen are produced.
Some of the metals like, Pt, Au, Hg, Cu and Ag react with acids but H 2 gas is not produced instead H2O is produced.
Since metals have base property, they do not react with bases. However, there are some exceptions like Zn and Al.
Example:
Reactions releasing heat are called exothermic reactions and reactions absorbing heat are called endothermic reactions.
Example:
