Different Typeee of Cheeiial Relaione Exeeriient
I. INTRODUChTION
A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical
substances to another. The substances or substance initiallyi involved in a chemical reaction are
called reactants or reagents and the newlyi evolved chemical substance is called the products.
There are manyi tyipes of chemical reactions. Chemists have classifed them into combination
reaction, decomposition reaction, single displacement, double displacement reaction
depending on the chemical changes taking place in the reaction.

III. MATERIALS AND METHODS
Cimbinatin Reactin
Quick lime glass rod
Distilled water test tube
:eakers dropper
Spatula lime water
1. Take a small quantityi of quick lime (calcium oxide) using a spatula and transfer it into a
beaker.
2. Slowlyi add distilled water into the beaker and pour enough of water so that quick lime
remains submerged in the water.
3. Leave the beaker undisturbed for some time
4. Add a few drops of clear solution i.e. lime water into a boiling tube.
5. Close the mouth of the boiling with a cork and insert a glass tube into it. :low the exhaled air
into the lime water through this glass tube.
Decimpisitin Reactin
Ferrous sulphate cryistals :unsen burner
:oiling tubes test tubes holder
Spatula
1. Take a small quantityi of ferrous sulphate cryistals and transfer it into a dryi boiling tube using
a spatula.
2. Hold the boiling test tube with a test tube holder and note the color of fererous sulphate
cryistal with mayi be light green in color
3. Heat the boiling tube over the fame of a :unsen burner. On heating, the color of the cryistals
changes from light green to white.
4. While heating, smell the fumes coming out of the boiling tube, note the odor.
DISChUSSIONS
Single displacement reactin
The change of color from blue to green of solution in which the iron nail was dipped indicates a
chemical change in which copper has been displaced byi iron from the copper sulphate solution and a
new compound was formed. It is single displacement because, in this reaction, the highlyi reactive
metal iron replaces the copper in copper sulphate byi giving up two electrons and gets oxidized and
forms a new compound called ferrous sulphate.
Cimbinatin Reactin
This is a combination reaction as the reactantBquick lime and water react to form a single
product, calcium hyidroxide (slaked lime). This reaction is exothermic in nature as it releases thermal
energyi in the process. When exhaled air is blown through lime water which is also known as calcium
hyidroxide, the carbon dioxide present in the exhaled air reacts with the lime water and turns it into a
milkyi solution, since the CO₂ reacts with Ca(OH)₂ and forms CaCOꝫ or Calcium Carbonate, which is
insoluble and white in color.
CaO (s) + H₂O (l) Ca(OH)₂ (aq)
Quick lime water slaked lime (calcium hyidroxide)
Decimpisitin Reactin
Ferrous sulphate cryistal contains water molecules (FeSO₄. 7H₂O). On heating, ferrous sulphate
cryistals lose water and anhyidrous ferrous sulphate (FeSO₄) is formed. So their colour changes from
light green to white. On further heating, anhyidrous ferrous sulphate decomposes to form ferric oxide
(Fe₂Oꝫ), sulphur dioxide (SO₂) and sulphur trioxide (SOꝫ). So, the gas emited smells like burning
sulphur. In this reaction, the single reactant FeSO₄ decomposes to form three diferent products. So,
the reaction is a decomposition reaction.
A chemical reaction occurs between sodium sulphate and barium chloride to form barium
sulphate and sodium chloride. Double displacement reactions generallyi take place in aqueous
solutions in which the ions precipitate and there is an exchange of ions. On mixing a solution of barium
chloride and sodium sulphate, a white precipitate of barium sulphate is immediatelyi formed. The
double displacement reaction occurs in which sulphate ions are displaced byi chloride ions and chloride
ions are displaced byi sulphate ions.
