Types of Chemical Reactions Worksheet

Writing Formulas
In order to complete chemical reactions, you must be able to write formulas for ionic
compounds. Remember, to write the formula for ionic compounds all you have to do is criss-
cross the numerical value of the charges into subscripts for the elements. Remember, polyatomic
ions must be kept in brackets if there are more than one of them!

+2
Ex) Ca Cl –1 criss-crosses to make the formula CaCl2 (we don’t write 1’s as subscripts)
+3
Ex) Al SO4-2 makes Al2(SO4)3

Write formulas for the following ionic compounds (salts)

1. magnesium fluoride __________ 6. iron (II) sulfate ___________


2. calcium nitride __________ 7. barium nitrate ___________
3. aluminum iodide __________ 8. potassium phosphate ___________
4. sodium chloride __________ 9. cobalt (II) chlorate ___________
5. copper (I) sulfide __________ 10. zinc carbonate ___________

Write formulas for the following basic oxides (metal oxides)

1. lithium oxide __________ 6. iron (III) oxide ___________


2. magnesium oxide __________ 7. silver oxide ___________
3. barium oxide __________ 8. nickel (II) oxide ___________
4. potassium oxide __________ 9. tin (IV) oxide ___________
5. cesium oxide __________ 10. copper (II) oxide ___________

Write formulas for the following bases (end in hydroxide)

1. lithium hydroxide __________ 6. lead (II) hydroxide ___________


2. barium hydroxide __________ 7. zinc hydroxide ___________
3. aluminum hydroxide __________ 8. calcium hydroxide ___________
4. potassium hydroxide __________ 9. copper (I) hydroxide ___________
5. copper (II) hydroxide __________ 10. magnesium hydroxide ___________

5. hydrofluoric acid ____________ 10. hydroiodic acid ____________

Types of Reactions
There are 5 major types of reactions simplified by the following equations:
 Synthesis/Combination A + B  AB
 Decomposition AB  A + B
 Combustion ? + O2  ?
 Single Replacement X + AB  XB + A or Y + AB  AY + B
 Double Replacement XY + AB  XB + AY

Classify each of the following reactions:

1. Zn + Cl2  ZnCl2
2. 2 H2S + 3 O2  2 SO2 + 2 H2O
3. Cu + 2 AgNO3  Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
4. Mg(OH)2  MgO + H2O
5. CaCl2 + Na2SO4  CaSO4 + 2 NaCl
6. CaO + H2O  Ca(OH)2
7. Pb + 4 HCl  PbCl4 + 2 H2
8. Li2O + CO2  LiCO3
9. SO2 + H2O  H2SO3
10. MgCO3  MgO + CO2
Classify each of the following reactions when only the reactants are given and fill
in the products and balance:

1. Mg + N2 
2. C2H6 + O2 
3. Zn + CuCl2 
4. Ca + H2O 
