Lesson 1: Double Displacement, Single Displacement, Synthesis, Decomposition?
Reactions may be described in many ways. One way is to describe the reaction by what
physically occurs during the reaction. Yet another way is to describe the reaction according to
the chemical process it undergoes. Each of these will be discussed separately but overlaps will
be shown where appropriate.
Four terms are used to describe reactions by what physically occurs within the reaction equation.
These four terms are Double Displacement, Single Displacement, Synthesis, and
Decomposition.
Double Displacement reactions, or metathesis reactions, are ones in which the cation swaps
the anion it is attached to. In the picture below the man is the cation and the hat the anion.
Notice that as the reaction proceeds from left to right, the cation simply swapped its anion.
More commonly this reaction is illustrated using the general formula:
AB + CD → AD + CB
Demonstration:
Demonstration Preparation:
Dissolve 1.185 g cobalt (II) chloride hexahydrate, CoCl2 . 6 H2O, in enough water to make 50
mL of solution.
Dissolve 0.200 g sodium hydroxide, NaOH, in enough water to make 50 mL of solution. This
generates heat so add the NaOH slowly to the water.
Demonstration Materials:
0.1 M CoCl2 . 6 H2O
0.1 M NaOH
Test tube
2 droppers

Procedure:
1. Add 20 drops of cobalt chloride hexahydrate to a test tube. Point out to the class that the
solution is clear though tinted.
2. Add 20 drops of the sodium hydroxide to the test tube. Point out to the class that the
solution is now opaque. Let them know that formation of a solid often indicates that a
chemical reaction occurred.
Observations: Cobalt chloride hexahydrate is a rose colored solution, sodium hydroxide is a
clear solution. When combined they form a teal solution with a solid precipitate. The reaction
is:
CoCl2 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) → Co(OH)2 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)
Precipitation reactions involving two ionic compounds are always double displacement
reactions.
Single Displacement reactions are reactions in which the cation of an ionic compound gains
electrons to become a neutral element while the neutral element in the reaction dissolves to
form a cation. In the diagram below the man in the red shirt represents the neutral element on
the reactant side. As the reaction proceeds the man in the red shirt dissolves taking on the anion.
As this occurs the other male changes from being a cation as a reactant to being neutral as a
product.
More commonly this reaction is illustrated using the general formula:
A + BY → AY + B
Demonstration:
Demonstration Materials:
1.1 M AgNO3
Cu wire

Reactions
Page 3
Procedure:
1. Pass around a piece of copper wire. Have the students describe the material.
2. Pass around a solution of silver nitrate. Point out to the students that this solution is a
clear, colorless solution.
3. Place a piece of copper wire into a test tube and cover the wire with aqueous silver
nitrate.
4. Allow this reaction to sit until the end of class.
Observations: The copper is a shiny, reddish-gold solid; the silver nitrate is a clear, colorless
solution. As the reaction proceeds, the solid begins to turn grey which is the silver plating out
onto the solid copper and the solution begins to take on a blue tint indicating that the copper is
dissolving into solution.
Cu (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) → Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
Single displacement reactions are an example of a redox reaction. Additionally, precipitation
reactions involving an element and an ionic solution will always be single displacement
reactions.
If you would like an exciting video to illustrate a single displacement reaction, show the Brainiac
Thermite video. The reaction:
2 Al (s) + Fe2O3 (aq) → Al2O3 (s) + 2 Fe (molten)
Another cool single displacement reaction occurs when magnesium burns in the presences of
carbon dioxide.
(http://www.metacafe.com/watch/894804/uncontrollable_magnesium_reaction_in_dry_ice/)
2 Mg (s) + CO2 (s) → 2 MgO (s) + C (s)
Synthesis reactions are the result of more than one reactant combining to form a single
product. In the diagram below the reactant bird is wasting away. When the bird eats the worm,
hence combines with the worm, you get a fat bird. The product bird is therefore the result of the
skinny bird combining with the worm.
Reactions

The most common way to illustrate this type of reaction is via the general reaction:
A + B → AB
Demonstration:
Demonstration Materials:
Magnesium strip
Bunsen burner
Watch glass
Tongs
Procedure.
1. Pass a strip of magnesium around to your students for observation.
2. Warn your students to look at your face rather than the experiment.
3. With tongs grab a piece of magnesium
4. Place the magnesium into the flame of a Bunsen burner until it ignites.
5. Quickly move the magnesium over the watch glass to collect the reaction residue.
6. Pass the residue around to your students for observation.
Observations: The magnesium is a shiny, silver solid that glows bright white when ignited. A
white solid residue is the result of the reaction.
2 Mg (s) + O2 (g) → MgO (s)
Reactions involving pure metals with oxygen are examples of synthesis reactions as well as
redox reactions.
Decomposition reactions occur when one reactant gives off two or more products. In the
diagram below the reactant egg hatches to give two products, the egg shell plus turtle.
The most common way to illustrate this type of reaction is via the general reaction:
AB → A + B

Demonstration Materials:
Ammonium carbonate
Test tube
Test tube clamp
Bunsen burner
Lighter
Procedure:
1. Add a small amount of ammonium carbonate to a test tube.
2. Pass the sample around for the students to make observations. (Smell, appearance)
3. Using test tube clamps, hold the test tube over the flame of a Bunsen burner.
4. Allow the solid to completely disappear.
5. Have a student waft a sample of the gases produced toward their nose and have them
report their findings to the class
6. Have a student look at the top of the test tube and tell the class what they see.
Observations: The ammonium carbonate reactant is a white solid. As this material is heated it
decomposes to form three gases. The smell is indicative of ammonia gas being produced. The
condensation at the top of the test tube is the result of water gas being generated and then the gas
being cooled. The last product is difficult to detect and that is carbon dioxide.
(NH4)2CO3 (s) → 2 NH3 (g) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g)
Lab #1 – gives the student an opportunity to identify reactions as occurring by single
displacement, double displacement, synthesis, or decomposition. It also give them the
opportunity to predict the products for the reactions.

Lesson 2 – Precipitation Reactions
Lessons 2-4 include a second way to describe chemical reactions. This is accomplished by
evaluating the they types of products formed or the oxidation states of the elements involved.
There are three types of reactions that we will discuss: Precipitation reactions, Acid / Base
Neutralization reactions (also described as dehydration reactions), and OxidationReduction reactions.
Precipitation reactions are reactions that produce a solid product. Many precipitation
reactions involve inorganic chemicals. These reactions fall into the categories of double
displacement or single displacement reactions. Examples of this reaction type include:
CoCl2 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) → Co(OH)2 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)
and
Cu (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) → Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
as discussed previously.
Another example is the reaction of lead (II) nitrate with
potassium dichromate.
K2Cr2O7 (aq) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq) → 2 KNO3 (aq) + PbCr2O7 (s)
Again, the observation that leads to the identification of a reaction as a precipitation reaction is
the formation of a solid referred to as a precipitate. How can the identity of the solid product
be predicted in a double displacement reaction? Via the solubility rules which are listed in the
table below. (They are listed in order of importance.)

following reactions and state whether the reaction is a precipitation reaction.
(NH4)2SO4 + FeCl2 → FeSO4 + 2 NH4Cl
AgNO3 + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO3
2 NaOH + Mg(C2H3O2)2 → 2 NaC2H3O2 + Mg(OH)2

Lesson 3 – Acid / Base Neutralization Reactions
Acid / Base Neutralization Reactions combine acid and base reactants to form water as one
of the products. Example:
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) → H2O (l) + NaCl (aq)
To be able to recognize a reaction as that between an acid and a base, it is necessary to be able to
identify acids and bases.
Demonstration:
Demonstration Preparation:
1.1 M Barium hydroxide octahydrate – dissolve 3.15 g barium hydroxide octahydrate in enough
water to make 100 mL of solution
0.1 M Sulfuric acid – slowly add 0.55 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid to 50 mL of water in a
100-mL volumetric flask. Cap and shake. Fill to the mark with water. Cap and shake.

Demonstration Materials:
0.1 M Barium hydroxide octahydrate
0.1 M sulfuric acid
Buret
250 mL beaker
Phenolphthalein indicator
Electrode
Stirring rod
Procedure:
1. Give the student the formula of barium hydroxide and sulfuric acid and ask them to
predict the product of the reaction.
2. To a 250-mL beaker add 30 mL of 0.1 M sulfuric acid.
3. To the beaker add 50 mL of water and 2 drops of phenolphthalein.
4. Ask the student for their opinion as why the water you just added should not make a
difference in our reaction. (Point out to them that it is the sulfuric acid reacting with
the sodium hydroxide that is important and that the moles of H2SO4 did not change,
only the concentration.)
5. Fill a buret with barium hydroxide.
6. Place the beaker under the buret and drop the buret tip so that it is just below the
mouth of the beaker.
7. Place the electrodes down into the beaker and plug in the system.
8. Ask the students to explain why the light is currently glowing brightly.
9. Add the barium hydroxide 1 mL at a time for the first 25 mL. Ask the students to
describe what they see. (light begins to dim as solid forms)
10. Add the last 5 mL drop-by-drop until the endpoint is reached (phenolphthalein will
turn pink and remain pink for 30 seconds and the light will go out)
11. Ask your students to explain their observations.
12. Set the resultant material aside in a labeled container until the water evaporates off.
The resultant barium sulfate must be disposed of properly.
The two reactions above are straight forward acid/base neutralization reactions involving a
strong acid and a strong base, but, many other very important reactions fall under the category of
acid / base neutralization reactions. These include ester formation and amide formation which are
reactions associated with biological systems. The remainder of this lesson focuses on these
reactions.

Lesson 4 – Oxidation-Reduction Reactions (Redox Reactions)
Oxidation-Reduction reactions, also known as redox reactions, are reactions that involve a
transfer of electrons as the reaction proceeds from reactants to products. This lesson will
discuss two primary types of redox reactions. They include single displacement reactions and
combustion reactions. These two types of reactions will be studied individually.
Single displacement reactions
If you look back at the formula for a single displacement reaction, A + BY → AY + B, you
will note that:
The reactant that is in elemental form becomes a cation on the product side of the
reaction
The cation of the ionic compound on the reactant side is neutralized on the product side
as it becomes an element.
If you follow these alterations, it will be easy to identify this as a redox reaction and visualize the
electron transfer. The simplest way to follow the alteration is to assign oxidation states to the
elements that undergo the change. There are two rules of importance associated with single
displacement reactions.
1) An element in its standard state, meaning that it is neutral, has an oxidation state of zero.
2) A monoatomic ion has an oxidation state equal to its charge.
Let’s just look at an example:
Cu (s) + 2 AgNO3 (aq) → Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
By eliminating the nitrate ion, which does not undergo a change, the reaction becomes:
Cu (s) + 2 Ag+ (aq) → Cu2+ (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
Now it’s time to assign oxidation states to the reaction.
0
+1
+2
0
Cu (s) + 2 Ag+ (aq) → Cu2+ (aq) + 2 Ag (s)
Now to follow the alterations that occurred.
Note: Copper lost 2 electrons as it moved from reactant side to product side and each silver atom
gained 1 electron as it moved from reactant side to product side. Because one element gained
Reactions
Page 13
electrons and one element lost electrons, there was a transfer of electrons and this reaction is a
redox reaction.
There are four key terms used to describe a redox reaction.
Element oxidized – the element that loses electrons as it moves from reactant side to
product side.
Element reduced – the element that gains electrons as it moves from reactant side to
product side.
Reducing reactant – the reactant that causes an element to be reduced. (The reducing
reactant will contain the element that is oxidized.)
Oxidizing reactant – the reactant that causes an element to be oxidized. (The
oxidizing reactant will contain the element reduced.)
Let’s apply this terminology to the reaction we have been looking at.
Combustion reactions of hydrocarbons
A combustion reaction is one in which a hydrocarbon is combined with oxygen. The most
common products of a combustion reaction are carbon dioxide and water though other
compounds are possible. Hydrocarbons are compounds that are primarily composed of
hydrogen and carbon, though other elements of sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen, can be present.
All combustion reactions are redox reactions. The oxygen acts as an oxidizing reactant to
oxidize the carbon of the hydrocarbon. The hydrocarbon acts as the reducing reactant to reduce
the oxidation state of oxygen.

6. Dump the yeast into the sugar solution and swish the bottle.
7. Set the bottle aside
8. After several minutes, you’ll notice the balloon standing upright.
9. Give the students the reaction and ask them to identify the element oxidized, the element
reduced, the oxidizing reactant and the reducing reactant
Observations: As the yeast combines with the sugar solution bubbling will occur. Let your
students know that bubbling is a sign of a chemical reaction. In this case the bubbling is the
result of carbon dioxide being produced from the decomposition of the sugar. Yeast is simply a
catalyst for this reaction. A catalyst is a material that speeds up reaction but its composition
remains unchanged.

the elements oxidized and reduced, and the oxidizing and reducing reactant.
