This post is a list of basic chemical reactions. There are 6 reactions listed below alphabetically. License: CC BY-SA 3.0
1. Combustion
"...high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture known as smoke." (Wikipedia: Combustion, 7.27.21 UTC 14:29)
2. Decomposition
"...simplifying a single chemical entity... into two or more fragments. Chemical decomposition is usually regarded and defined as the exact opposite of chemical synthesis." (Wikipedia: Chemical decomposition, 1.15.21 UTC 05:24)
3. Double replacement
"...exchange of bonds between two non-reacting chemical species which results in the creation of products with similar identical bonding affiliations." (Wikipedia: Salt-metathesis reaction, 5.28.21 UTC 04:03)
4. Redox
"...transfer of electrons between chemical species, most often with one species (the reducing agent) undergoing oxidation (losing electrons) while another species (the oxidizing agent) undergoes reduction (gains electrons)." (Wikipedia: Redox, 7.20.21 UTC 16:12)
5. Single replacement
"...one element is replaced by another in a compound." (Wikipedia: Single displacement reaction, 7.24.21 UTC 21:57)
6. Synthesis
"...two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex substance." (Wikipedia: Chemical reaction, 8.3.21 UTC 22:11)
