****(Single replacement reactions*****
Metal replaces metal:
Use the series of activities to determine if a metal can replace another metal in a compound. Metals higher in the activity series can displace metals lower in the series.
For example, if you have zinc (Zn) and copper sulfate (CuSO4), you can look at the activity series to see if Zn can replace Cu. If so, the reaction could go as follows:
Zn(s) CuSO4(aq) ZnSO4(aq) Cu(s)
b. Metal reacting with an acid:
Likewise, use the series of activities to see if a metal can replace hydrogen in an acid. If the metal is higher in the activity series than hydrogen, a reaction will occur.
For example, with hydrochloric acid (HCl) and zinc (Zn), the reaction would be:
Zn(s) 2HCl(aq) ZnCl2(aq) H2(g)
*****Double replacement reactions*****
Precipitation reaction:
Consult a solubility table to determine if products will form a solid (precipitate). If the combination of ions results in an insoluble compound, a precipitation reaction occurs.
For example, if you mix silver nitrate (AgNO3) and sodium chloride (NaCl), the reaction would be:
AgNO3(aq) NaCl(aq) AgCl(s) NaNO3(aq)
Neutralization reaction:
When an acid reacts with a base, a neutralization reaction occurs, forming water and a salt.
For example, in the reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH):
HCl(aq) NaOH(aq) H2O(l) NaCl(aq)
*****Combustion reactions*****
Combustion reactions involve a substance reacting with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. For hydrocarbons, as in the combustion of methane (CH4):
CH4(g) 2O2(g) CO2(g) 2H2O(g)
