Single Replacement & Decomposition

Given

Two chemical reactions

1. Cl2 + 2NaBr ⇒2NaCl + Br2

2. 2NaCl ⇒2Na + Cl2

Required

Type of reaction

Solution

Equation 1 : A single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

General formula :

A + BC ⇒ AC + B

Equation 2 : the decomposition reaction of a compound into its constituent elements or compounds

General formula :

AB ⇒ A + B
