What is a reaction in which two or more substances react to produce a single product?
The term for a type of reaction in which two substances react to produce a single compound is combination reaction. This is a type of chemical reaction.
What kind of chemical reaction is shown mg 2 h ci mgci2 h2?
A single replacement reaction is shown.
Choose all of the statements that are true about this single replacement reaction Al plus CuCl2?
One product will be AlCl3 Copper metal will be a product
What type of reaction is Na plus Cl --NaCl?
synthesis or combination reactionA+...double replacement.Addition reaction.
What type of reaction produces two or more products from a single reactant?
The type of reaction that combines reactants to produce larger products is called synthesis. The opposite process of synthesis is decomposition.
What do enzymes to do a chemical reaction?
Enzymes are catalysts in a chemical reaction, they are used in chemistry to increase the speed of a specific chemical reaction. A single enzyme will not speed up multiple chemical reactions, usually it is limited to one reactant.
When an atom ion or molecule of a reactant switches places with an unpaired reactant what type of reaction is that?
single replacement reaction
What is the clue that a reaction will be a decomposition reaction?
In decomposition reaction, single reactant will breakdown to form two or more products.
Do you always need more than one reactant or more than one product to have a chemical reaction?
A simple definition of a chemical reaction is a reaction in which chemical bonds are broken and/or formed. Under the right conditions (temperature, pressure and catalyst) the following reaction may run: 2CH4 -> C2H6 + H2 Although in this case two molecules of the same reactant was needed, only one reactant was needed. So, the direct answer to your question is no.
What happens to the atoms in a displacement reaction?
Atoms in either a single or double displacement reaction are simply rearranged to form new substances. They're the same atoms on the reactant side as the product side, which upholds the law of conservation of mass.
Why are Synthesis and Decomposition reactions described as opposite reactions?
Combination reactions follow the formula A + B --> AB. For example, C + O2 --> CO2. Decomposition reactions follow the formula AB --> A + B. For example, H2CO3 --> H20 + CO2.
What time of chemical reaction is Ag plus CuSO4?
what type of chemical reaction is this __Ag+___CuSO4
what shows the possible of a single-replacement reaction?
An element is one of the reactants, and a compound is the other reactant.
What happens in a single-replacement reaction-?
One element takes the place of another in a compound.
List and define three categories of chemical reactions?
CHEMICAL reactions can be classified into categories;SYNTHESIS REACTIONIn a synthesis reaction two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex substance. Two or more reactants yielding one product is another way to identify a synthesis reaction.For example, simple hydrogen gas combined with simple oxygen gas can produce a more complex substance-----water!The chemical equation for this synthesis reaction looks like:reactant + reactant -------> productTo visualize a synthesis reaction look at the following cartoon:In the cartoon, the skinny bird (reactant) and the worm (reactant) combine to make one product, a fat bird.DECOMPOSITION REACTIONIn a decomposition reaction a more complex substance breaks down into its more simple parts. One reactant yields 2 or more products. Basically, synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites.For example, water can be broken down into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. The chemical equation for this decomposition reaction looks like:reactant -------> product + productTo visualize a decomposition reaction look at the following cartoon:In this cartoon the egg (the reactant), which contained the turtle at one time, now has opened and the turtle (product) and egg shell (product) are now two separate substances.SINGLE REPLACEMENT REACTIONIn a single replacement reaction a single uncombined element replaces another in a compound. Two reactants yield two products. For example when zinc combines with hydrochloric acid, the zinc replaces hydrogen. The chemical equation for this single replacement reaction looks like:reactant + reactant ---------> product + productTo visualize a single replacement reaction look at the following cartoon:Notice, the guy in the orange shirt steals the date of the other guy. So, a part of one of the reactants trades places and is in a different place among the products.DOUBLE REPLACEMENT REACTIONIn a double replacement reaction parts of two compounds switch places to form two new compounds. Two reactants yield two products. For example when silver nitrate combines with sodium chloride, two new compounds--silver chloride and sodium nitrate are formed because the sodium and silver switched places. The chemical equation for this double replacement reaction looks like:reactant + reactant ---------> product + productTo visualize a double replacement reaction look at the following cartoon:ENERGY OF CHEMICAL REACTIONSChemical reactions always involve a change in energy. Energy is neither created or destroyed. Energy is absorbed or released in chemical reactions. Chemical reactions can be described as endothermic or exothermic reactions.Endothermic ReactionsChemical reactions in which energy is absorbed are endothermic. Energy is required for the reaction to occur. The energy absorbed is often heat energy or electrical energy. Adding electrical energy to metal oxides can separate them into the pure metal and oxygen. Adding electrical energy to sodium chloride can cause the table salt to break into its original sodium and chlorine parts.Exothermic ReactionsChemical reactions in which energy is released are exothermic. The energy that is released was originally stored in the chemical bonds of the reactants. Often the heat given off causes the product(s) to feel hot. Any reaction that involves combustion (burning) is an exothermic chemical reaction.
What type of reaction cannot involve a free element as a reactant?
A Decomposition Reaction, Single Replacement Reactions, Double Replacement Reactions and Combustion Reactions...
Why can a single enzyme only work on only one type of molecule?
Enzyme increase the rate of reaction by decreasing its activation energy. Physically they provide the surface for the reactant to react now as the reactant have to attach on enzyme surface then it is to be ensure that the enzyme should have affinity or its surface should be like that it only fix the specific reactant in it so that only that reactant proceed the reaction. It just work like lock and key mechanism as only specific key can be fit in its lock to save the product individuality in same way enzymes are specific for their substrate so as to maintain the individulatiy of reaciton and product.
