This document discusses different types of chemical reactions: 1) Combination reactions occur when two or more reactants form a single product like calcium oxide and water forming calcium hydroxide. 2) Decomposition reactions occur when a single compound splits into multiple simpler substances. 3) Displacement reactions occur when a more reactive element displaces a less reactive one from its compound like iron displacing copper from copper sulfate. 4) Double displacement reactions occur when parts of two ionic compounds are exchanged to form two new compounds. 5) Redox (oxidation-reduction) reactions involve the transfer of electrons between reactants.
