- Formation of a solid
- Formation of water
- Transfer of elections
In the formation of a solid, double replacement reactions take place. On the reactants side, both reactants must be aqueous. On the product side, one product is insoluble and one product is soluble.
In the formation of water, a strong acid and a strong base must react in order to form water and a salt. If the acid and base are not strong, they will not split. Double replacement reactions also take place in this type of reaction.
If the reaction does not fit into either of these categories, it is a redox reaction. There are four types of redox reactions: single replacement, synthesis, decomposition, and combustion.

Lilly, I really like how you summed up all of the types of reactions from this unit. It really helped put it all into perspective the night before the test because it was so simplified. Also, I really like the source you included. Good work!!!

ReplyDeleteThis is very helpful in differentiating between types of reactions. Really good information! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteOverall your post was very helpful while reviewing for the test. Also I really liked your link at the bottom, It really summed everything up and gave me extra practice!
ReplyDeleteGreat post Lilly! I like how you differentiated between the different reactions so clearly. It was very helpful in remembering the different types of chemical reactions we learned in this unit.
