This document defines and describes different types of chemical reactions. It states that a chemical reaction involves the transformation of one or more substances into products with different properties. Chemical reactions are represented by equations showing reactants and products. The main types of reactions discussed are combination, decomposition, displacement, and double displacement reactions. The document also discusses endothermic and exothermic reactions, neutralization reactions between acids and bases, and the classification of oxides as basic, acidic, amphoteric, or neutral based on how they react.
