Types of Reactions

There are 6 types of chemical reactions that we have learnt today that are listed below,
- Synthesis: GF: A+B ----> C
- Decomposition: GF: A----> B+C
- Single Replacement: GF: A+BC----> BA+C
- Double Replacement: GF: AB+CD---->CB+AD
- Combustion: GF: AB+O2---->AO+BO
- Neutralization: GF: HA+BOH----> H2O+BA
More Advanced Neutralization Reaction:

We have also learnt: Predicting Single Replacement Reactions.
When doing a single replacement equation, you need to concern about what type of elements is more reactive than the other ones because if a non-metal combines with a more reactive metal, when it replaces with a less reactive metal, the reaction will not occur.
