    This document summarizes the results of 5 chemical reactions: 1. Burning of copper metal, which produced a green flame through a combustion and synthesis reaction that oxidized the copper. 2. Placement of an egg in vinegar, which decomposed the egg through a decomposition reaction, turning it yellow and squishy after 24 hours. 3. Burning of sugar, which underwent combustion and synthesis reactions to produce carbon dioxide and water as the sugar melted and carbonized. 4. Electrolysis of water, where a decomposition reaction produced oxygen and hydrogen gases when a copper wire touched a 9V battery in water. 5. Formation of silver crystals when silver nitrate touched a copper coil,
