Types of Chemical Reactions
Types of Chemical Reactions as the name suggests explores the classification of various types of chemical reactions based on different parameters. As we are surrounded by chemical reactions in our daily lives. From burning a match stick to making food all of the things and events in our lives involve various types of chemical reactions. Understanding the different types of chemical reactions is key to understanding how matter changes and interacts with one another. From combustion reactions that power our cars and homes, to acid-base reactions that occur in our bodies and the natural world, there are many different types of chemical reactions with a wide range of applications
Combination, decomposition, single-replacement, double-replacement, redox, combustion, precipitation, neutralization, etc. are some of the types of chemical reactions using various parameters as the basis. In this article, we will learn about it all the types of chemical reactions and the various bases for these classifications of chemical reactions as well.
