There are eight types of chemical reactions. These eight reactions are Decomposition‚ Composition‚ Acid/Base‚ Synthesis‚ Single-Replacement‚ Double-Replacement‚ Precipitation‚ and Redox. Though these eight could be referred to as the same due to them being chemical reactions. They are actually very different. An example of this difference is Decomposition and Synthesis. Decomposition is when a compound is broken into smaller chemical species while a Synthesis reaction is two or more chemical species

determine whether or not a chemical reaction occurred after the mixing of various chemicals. The evolution of a gas‚ the formation of precipitation‚ and the change of temperature or color are all indicative of a chemical reaction. It was assumed that a reaction did not take place if the mixture of chemicals exhibited none of these characteristics. Several precipitation‚ complex-ion formation‚ redox‚ and acid-base reactions were performed. Redox: Decomposition Reactions In a 13 x 100 mm test tube‚ 2 mL

Observations | Reaction Type | Complete and Balance | 1. When heated in oxygen‚ magnesium gives off a bright white flame. | combination reaction | 2Mg + O2-----> 2MgO | 2. Bubbling and fizzing occurs; the zinc appears to “dissolve” and what appears to be “steam” comes off out of container. | single-displacement reaction | Zn + 2 HCl (aq) --> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) | 3. Black smoke occurs | decomposition reactions | 2 (H2O2)(aq) MnO2 2 (H2O) + (O2) | 4. reddish-brown deposit

Endothermic and Exothermic reactions A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are chemically changed into one or more new substances. A chemical reaction may involve the motion of electrons in the forming and breaking of chemical bonds. Therefore when a chemical reaction takes place‚ energy is transferred to‚ or from‚ the environment. A Chemical reaction can either be exothermic or endothermic. Exothermic Reactions During an Exothermic Reaction a transfer of energy to the

In the lab testing the heat of a reaction to understand changes in enthalpy in an exothermic reaction‚ the group hypothesized that if the amount of reactant is changed then the amount of heat produced (exothermic) will increase. This hypothesis was supported through the data as each of the six trials produced heat and the larger the piece of magnesium the larger the change in heat was. In the first trial the group had .085 grams of Mg and after being placed in 3 ml of 21.8℃ HCl the temperature of

objective: In this experiment‚ I decided to find out how temperature would affect endothermic reactions compared to exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction absorbs energy in the form of heat. This reaction feels cold because it is taking heat away from its surroundings. It also releases gases. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy as heat. Since the energy is released‚ the exothermic reactions feel hot. Methods/Materials I did three experiments. I mixed lemon juice and baking

Hamad IS1‚ B4 Endothermic and exothermic reactions Background information: An endothermic reaction is a product or a substance accompanied by the absorption of heat. An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases heat. Design: Research question- Which reaction occurs‚ exothermic or endothermic‚ when Epson salt‚ Borax‚ Laundry detergent‚ and baking soda are added‚ separately‚ with water? Hypothesis- If Epson salt is mixed with water then the reaction will be endothermic because salt is used

The Sequence of Chemical Reactions Drew Selfridge Dave Allen‚ Lab partner Instructor Yang February 11‚ 1997 INTRODUCTION This experiment was to recover the most amount of copper after it is subjected to a sequence of reactions. The copper is originally in solid form‚ but the reactions will turn it into free Cu+2 ions floating in solution. The ions will then be regrouped to form solid copper once again. During this process‚ however‚ some of the Cu+2 ions may be lost. The copper will subjected

Change of Reaction Purpose of Experiment The purpose of this experiment is to determine the enthalapy change for the displacement reaction: Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq) Hypothesis With this experiment I can also not make a hypothesis‚ because we did actually not do the experiment‚ but we were told that the temperature would make a sudden drop ‚ but we can measure the ΔT of the surrounding. The reaction is endothermic because the system will take in energy. During the reaction bonds
