What type of reaction is represented by the equation CaOH2sgt CaOs CO2gsynthesisdecompositioncombustionsingle replacement class=

Respuesta :

Combination (also called synthesis): Where two elements or one compound and one element will bond and form a new compound as a product, the representation for this reaction is:

A + B -> AB

Decomposition: The opposite from Combination, now one compound will decompose and form 2 new elements or compounds as the product:

AB -> A + B

Single Replacement: One element will take the place of another element in already existing compound:

A + BC -> AB + C

Double Replacement: Now we have two compounds switching elements and forming two new compounds:

AB + CD -> AC + BD

Combustion: Reactions that involve oxygen as reactant and we have CO2 and H2O as products:

X + O2 -> CO2 + H2O

For our question, we have a Decomposition reaction
