The only time you will see an A and a B in this type of reaction is for the generic description, such as in A + BC ==> AC + B and it simply represents two elements that usual are some type of metal element.

What kind of reaction occurs when one element replaces another in a compound?
This is called a replacement reaction. When one element replaces another in a compound, it is called single replacement or single displacement. An example isZn + 2HCl ---> ZnCl2 + H2 where the zinc replaces the hydrogen in the acid to form zinc chloride.
Can atoms swap partners in chemical reactions?
Yes. When one "partner" is swapped, it is a single replacement (displacement) reaction. A + BC --> AC + B When two "partners" are swapped, it is a double replacement (displacement) reaction. AB + XY --> AY + XB
What is the general form of a synthesis reaction?
.Ab + c cb + a
List 5 types of chemical reactions and an example of each?
Single replacement: A + BC ==> AC + BDouble replacement: AB + CD ==> AD + CBSynthesis: A + B ==> CDegradation: C ==> A + BCombustion: CnH2n+2 + 2nO2 ==> nCO2 + 2nH2O
How you can determine if a chemical reaction represents a singledisplacement reaction or double displacement reaction?
single-replacement reactions and a double-replacement reactions differ in the fact that in a single-replacement reaction only one element that has a positive charge is oxidized or looses electrons. In double-replacement reactions two elements in a compound that contain a positive charge are oxidized.
What is is a define single-replacement reaction.?
A single replacement reaction involve the replacement of an element with other in the molecule as in this model:A + B-C = A-C + B.
What does a single replacement reaction look like?
A+bc---> b+ac
What kind of reaction is a plus bc b plus ac?
associative? single replacement
Which type of reaction has two compound reactants and two compound products?
The type of reaction that always has an element and a compound as reactants is a single displacement reaction, or a substitution reaction. These are of the form A + BC ---> AC + B.
What kind of reaction occurs when one element replaces another in a compound?
This is called a replacement reaction. When one element replaces another in a compound, it is called single replacement or single displacement. An example isZn + 2HCl ---> ZnCl2 + H2 where the zinc replaces the hydrogen in the acid to form zinc chloride.
What kind of reaction is A plus BC æ B plus AC?
associative? single replacement
What are the general formulas for the five main types of reactions?
Synthesis - A + B = AB Decomposition - AB = A + B Single Replacement - A + BC = B + AC Double Replacement - AB + CD = AD + CB Combustion - either a synthesis, decomposition, or single replacement reaction. It combines with oxygen.
Can atoms swap partners in chemical reactions?
Yes. When one "partner" is swapped, it is a single replacement (displacement) reaction. A + BC --> AC + B When two "partners" are swapped, it is a double replacement (displacement) reaction. AB + XY --> AY + XB
What is a displaced reaction?
A single-displacement reaction, also called single-replacement reaction, is a type of oxidation-reduction chemical reaction when an element or ion moves out of one compound and into another. (One element is replaced by another in a compound.) This is usually written asA + BX → AX + B
What is the general form of a single-replacement reaction?
.Ab + c cb + a
What does a replacement reaction look like?
A+bc---> b+ac
What are single-replacement reactions?
a+bc --> ac+b
