2. 1. Describe the trends found in the periodic
table with respect to:
a) atom size
b) ionization energy
c) Electronegativity
3. •In a composition reaction, also known as
a synthesis reaction, two or more
reactants combine to form a single
product.
•This type of reaction is represented by
the following general equation.
A + X --> AX
4. •Formation of binary compound from its
elements
2 Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2 MgO(s)
S8 (s) + 8 O2(g) --> 8 SO2(g)
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) --> 2 NaCl(s)
•Reactants can also be compounds.
CaO(s) + H2O(l) --> Ca(OH)2(s)
SO2(g) + H2O(l) --> H2SO3(aq)
5. In a decomposition reaction, a single reactant
undergoes a reaction that produces two or more
simpler substances.
Decomposition reactions are the opposite of
composition reactions.
They are represented by the following general
equation.
AX --> A + X
Decomposition reactions take place only when
energy is added.
6. a)Decomposition of Binary Compounds
* compound breaks up into its elements
2 H2O (l) --> 2 H2 (g) + O2 (g)
2 HgO (s) --> 2 Hg (l) + O2 (g)
a)Decomposition of Metal Carbonates
* when heated, metal carbonates decompose into a metal
oxide and carbon dioxide
CuCO3 (s) --> CuO (s) + CO2 (g)
7. c) Decomposition of Metal Chlorates
* when heated, metal chlorates
decompose into a metal chloride
and oxygen
2 KClO3 (s) --> 2 KCl (s) + 3O2 (g)
8. *The equation represents an incomplete
chemical reaction.
Al + Cl2 -->
What is the product of the chemical
reaction?
A.Al2Cl3
B.AlCl
C.AlCl2
D.AlCl3
9. *The chemical equation represents the
reaction between sodium (Na) and
oxygen (O2).
4 Na + O2 -->
What is the product of this reaction?
A.2 Na2O
B.2 NaO
C.2 NaO2
D.2 Na2O2
10. •In a single replacement reaction, one
element replaces a “similar” element in a
compound.
•Single replacement reactions can be
represented by the following general
equation:
Element + Compound --> Element +
Compound
A + BC --> B + AC
•“Similar” = metals replace metals
= nonmetals replace nonmetals
Exception: Hydrogen replaces metals and
metals can replace hydrogen
11. •Activity series is a list of elements organized
according to the ease with which the elements
undergo certain chemical reactions.
•For metals, greater activity means a greater
ease of lose of electrons (forming cations).
•For nonmetals, it means a greater ease of
gaining electrons (making anions).
•Use the provided list to determine if any given
SDR will occur.

14. •In double-replacement reactions, the positive ions
of two compounds exchange places to form two
new compounds.
•Double replacement reactions can be represented
by the following general equation:
AX + BY --> AY + BX
16. •In a combustion reaction, a substance combines
with oxygen (O2), releasing a large amount of energy
in the form of light and heat.
•Most combustion reactions involve the reaction of a
carbon-based compound with oxygen. The products
are carbon dioxide and water.
•They are represented by the following general
equation.
X + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
