January 8th 2009 17:38
Reactions can be of different types if we are considering different types of sciences. In Biology, reaction is related to some mishap caused by usage of certain drug or may be due to certain conditions. This mishap is related to the living body which starts to behave erratically. Even when we take a certain class of science and then discuss the various types of reactions, again we encounter a number sub-classes. In other words our life is full of reactions and science has been always there to provide answers about these reactions.
Leaving away what rest of the sciences tell us, lets discuss what chemistry has to say about reactions. In chemistry reaction is the change in electronic configuration of a certain atom, which also influences the molecules of which it is a part of. Chemical Reaction have several classification but most of them are specific due to certain properties of some substance while most other tell us in general about changes involved in the variety of reactions.
Here this post will classify chemical reactions into five main types as follows:
1. Decomposition Reaction
2. Addition Reaction
3. Combustion Reaction
4. Single Displacement Reaction
5. Double Displacement Reaction
A further analysis of these types of reactions along with suitable examples can be found from the link below.
Types Of Chemical Reactions
A part from these reaction, several other reaction also exist which are unique and can be included in the types of reactions. Also one should understand the difference between a nuclear reaction and a chemical reaction. The above article will explain this comprehensively.
