a process in which substances change into other substances.
Some decomposition complications with heat:
Complete the following reactions using words, not formulas:
Use these steps to write the correct formulas for the products in these reactions.
Now is the time to ask for individual help if you have questions.
If you understand these problems, look ahead to this week's lab.
Chemical Reaction:

You know a chemical reaction takes place if one or more of these occur:
Most inorganic reactions can be placed into one of four types:
2H2 + O2
element + element
H2SO3
SO2 + H2O
Ca(OH)2
CaO + H2O
Li2CO3
Li2O + CO2
2KClO3
2KCl + 3O2
2H2O
compound
C6H12O6 + 6O2
The major reaction types can be sub-classified in several ways:
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2HCl (aq)
MgCl2 (aq) + 2H2O (s)
salt + water
SO2
2KNO3 (aq) + PbI2 (s)
insoluble compound
A hydrocarbon
(a compound containing only carbon and hydrogen) combines with oxygen. The products of combustion are always carbon dioxide and water.
When metallic substances are burned in oxygen, the combustion reaction is also an oxidation-reduction reaction, an example of which is the rusting of iron.
CO2 + 2H2O
carbon dioxide + water
2Fe2O3

Your knowledge of reaction types can be used to predict
the products of a reaction if the reactants are known.
Test Your Concept Understanding:
(hint: there are two products, one of which is water)
(hint: butane is a hydrocarbon)
