Expert Solution
Step 1

Different types of chemical reaction:

a) Precipitation reaction:

In precipitation reaction an insoluble salt is formed by the reaction between 2 aqueous solution containing soluble salts.

b) Double displacement reaction:

In double displacement reaction  the cation and anion of the two compound switch places. In this reaction 2 Compound (reactants) exchange of ions to form 2 new compounds (products).

c) Single displacement reaction:

Single displacement reaction occurs when one of the element displaces the another element from its compound.

d) Redox reaction:

In redox reactions oxidation and reduction occurs simultaneously.

e) Neutralization reaction:

Neutralization reaction also known as acid base reaction. As in this reaction acid and base neutralizes to produce salt and water.

f) Decomposition reaction:

Decomposition reaction occurs when large or complex compound break down into simpler compounds or elements.

g) Combustion reaction:

Combustion reaction is a reaction in which the Hydrocarbons react with oxygen gas (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

h) Combination reaction/ Synthesis reaction:

Combination reaction is a reaction in which 2 or more reactant combine to form a single product.
