17. Read the following text and retell it in Russian
The reaction of two or more elements together results in the formation of a chemical bond between atoms and the formation of a chemical compound.
Oxidation, reduction, dissociation, acid-base neutralization and molecular rearrangement are some of the commonly used kinds of chemical reactions.
A combustion reaction is when oxygen combines with another compound to form water and carbon dioxide. An example of this kind of reaction is the burning of napthalene:
C10H8 + 12O2 → 10CO2 + 4H2O
A synthesis reaction is when two or more simple compounds combine to form a more complicated one. One example of a synthesis reaction is the combination of iron and sulfur to form iron (II) sulfide:
8Fe + S8 → 8FeS
A decomposition reaction is the opposite of a synthesis reaction - a complex molecule breaks down to make simpler ones. One example of a decomposition reaction is the electrolysis of water to make oxygen and hydrogen gas:
2H2O → 2H2 + O2
Single displacement: This is when one element trades places with another element in a compound. One example of a single displacement reaction is when magnesium replaces hydrogen in water to make magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas:
Mg + 2H2O → Mg(OH)2 + H2
Double displacement: This is when the anions and cations of two different molecules switch places, forming two entirely different compounds. One example of a double displacement reaction is the reaction of lead (II) nitrate with potassium iodide to form lead (II) iodide and potassium nitrate:
Pb(NO3)2 + 2KI → PbI2 + 2KNO3
Acid-base: This is a special kind of double displacement reaction that takes place when an acid and base react with each other. The H+ ion in the acid reacts with the OH- ion in the base, causing the formation of water. One example of an acid-base reaction is the reaction of hydrobromic acid (HBr) with sodium hydroxide:
HBr + NaOH → NaBr + H2O
