Explanation There are mainly four types of reactions: Combination reaction: When two or more elements or compounds bond to form one product, it is called combination reaction. For example, the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia is an example of combination reaction. N 2 ( g ) + 3H 2 ( g ) → 2NH 3 ( g ) Decomposition reaction: When a reactant decomposes or splits into two or more products, it is called a decomposition reaction. For example, the decomposition of calcium carbonate into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide as follows: CaCO 3 ( s ) → Δ CaO ( s ) +CO 2 ( g ) Replacement reaction: Replacement reactions are of two types: a. Single replacement reaction b. Double replacement reaction Single replacement reaction: In this type of reaction one element or group in a compound is replaced by another element or group. For example, the reaction between zinc and hydrogen chloride; here H is replaced by Zn. Zn ( s )+ 2 HCl ( a q ) → H 2 ( g ) + ZnCl 2 ( a q ) Double replacement reaction: In this type of reaction all element or group in a compound is replaced by another element or group. For example, the reaction between barium chloride and sodium sulfate as follows: BaCl 2 ( a q ) + Na 2 SO 4 ( a q ) → 2NaCl ( a q ) + BaSO 4 ( s ) Combustion reaction: In combustion reaction organic compounds burn in presence of oxygen or air and produce water and carbon dioxide with energy. It is an exothermic reaction. For example, the combustion reaction of ethane is as follows: 2 C 2 H 6 ( g ) + 7 O 2 ( g ) → Δ 4 CO 2 ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( g ) Reactants Products a
