    Reaction

    Decomposition A + BC AC + B
    Reaction A and B are metals, A replaces B as it is Combustion Reaction
    more reactive.

    A compound breaks down into two
    A compound burns with oxygen, to form
    or more simpler substances. Y + XZ XY + Z carbon dioxide and water.
    CaCO 3(s) CaO (s) + CO 2(g) Y and Z are non-metals, Y replaces Z as it Occurs commonly with hydrocarbons.

    Rules in Chemistry!

    Metal, Non-metal, Salts Metal, Non-metal, Salts

    Ionic salts > carbonate & nitrate < are generally When metals combine with something, it gives
    solids, they leave solid metals and gaseous non- off solid products. Non-metals give off
    metallic oxides. gaseous products.
