The first reaction is a decomposition reaction.
00:05
We have a single reactant, calcium carbonate, that is decomposing into more than one product, calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
00:18
So this one we would classify as decomposition.
00:24
A combination reaction is just the reverse of a decomposition reaction.
00:29
We have two or more things combining to make one.
00:32
Instead of one falling apart into two or more things.
00:37
Then the second reaction is a combustion reaction.
00:43
Anytime we have a carbon hydrogen containing compound that reacts with oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water, this is a combustion reaction.
00:55
And by default, all combustion reactions are also oxidation reduction reactions.
01:01
So we could classify this both as a redox and as a combustion reaction.
01:09
To verify that it is a redox reaction, we could just identify anything with a change in oxidation state.
01:22
Oxygen goes from zero to minus two when it's in these compounds.
01:31
Then for the third reaction, we have an acid -base reaction where acetic acid, ch3cooh, transfers a hydrogen ion to ammonia to make ammonium and acetate.
01:54
Anytime we transfer a hydrogen ion, this is an acid -base reaction.
02:03
So all that's happened is this hydrogen was transferred here, and by definition this is an acid -base reaction...
