Types of Chemical Reactions

Synthesis Reaction: Magnesium + Oxygen

Single Displacement Reaction: Zinc + Hydrogen Chloride

Double Displacement Reaction: Silver nitrate + Sodium Chloride

H2

O2

Decomposition Reaction: Water Hydrogen + Oxygen

Explanation

Carbonelectrode

Combustion / Oxidation Reaction

Combustion:Hydrocarbon + oxygen CO2 + H2O

Example:Methane + oxygen CO2 + H2OCH4 + 2 O2 CO2 + 2 H2O

Oxidation:4 Fe + 3 O2 2 Fe2O3 (rust)

In both reactions, oxygen is a reactant and oxide is a product.
