#22 What are the five types of chemical reactions?
#23 What are the keys to predicting the products of the five
general types of reactions?
1. combination: Two elements combine to form one new
compound.
2. decomposition: one compound breaks up into its elements.
3. single replacement: one element replaces another in a
compound.
4. double replacement: two compounds exchange ions to form
two new compounds.
5. combustion: a fuel reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon
dioxide and water vapor.
