Answer:
This is a combustion reaction
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
A single-replacement reaction is a reaction where we will replace one element with a similar element in the compound.
A single-replacement or displacement reaction has the following form:
A+BC→AC+B
Element A is usually a metal and will replace element B in the compound , this should also be a metal.
If the elemnent isn't a metal ( so a nonmetal), the replacing element will either be a metal.
In a double-replacement reaction we will exchange positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds, what will cause the formation of two new compounds.
A double-replacement reaction has the following form:
AB+CD→AD+BC
IIn this example, A and C are positively-charged ions (cations), and B and D are negatively-charged ions (anions).
In a decomposition reaction a compound will break down into two or more substances ( those are smaller, more simple).
A decomposition reaction uses the following form.
AB→A+B
In a combustion reaction a substance will react with oxygen gas (O2). Oxygen gas is needed to start the reaction.CO2 gas and water vapor (H2O) will be produced.
In a combination reaction we will combine two or more substances to form a single new substance. This is also known as a synthesis reaction, and uses the general form:
A+B→AB
Step 2: The equation
C4H10(g) + 6O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 5H2O(g)
Step 3: What kind of reaction is this
Since the reaction requires oxygen and will produce carbon dioxie and water vapor. This means this reaction is a combustion reaction.
(Combustion of butane).
