Types of Chemical Reactions
  1. Decomposition
    1. when a compound breaks down into two or more elements or compounds
      1. AB -> A + B
      2. Combination (also known as synthesis)
        1. when two or more elements or compounds combine to form one new compound
          1. A + B -> C
          2. Combustion
            1. Attachments:

              1. when an element or compound reacts with oxygen, often producing energy as heat and light
              2. Single Replacement
                1. when a more active element replaces a less active element in a compound
                  1. if A is a metal:
                    1. A + BC -> AC + B
                    2. if A is a nonmetal:
                      1. A + BC -> BA + C
                    3. Double Replacement
                      1. AB + CD -> AD + CB
                        1. when two compounds react to form two new compounds
