(19 cards)
define and give examples of combination
2 or more substances combined together
eg A + B – AB
c+ 02 = c02
define and give examples of decomposition
a breakdown of a substance
eg AB=A+b
c02 =c+02
define and give examples of precipitation
it is where a solid is formed
eg A(l) + B(l) = C(s) + D(l)
AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) → AgCl (s) + KNO3(aq)
define and give examples of neutralisation
is when an acid and a base react to form water to netrulazize the reaction
eg acid + base = salt + water
define and give examples of combustion
, combustion involves a reaction between any combustible material and an oxidizer to form an oxidized product
