yay!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnx @aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

this one is a little tricky if you havent seen in the past, but the fact that it's forming water is a sign that it's an acid-base reaction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah...is it a double replacement or a single replacement tho?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

idk, it's neither. it's an acid-base reaction. http://misterguch.brinkster.net/6typesofchemicalrxn.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol, yeah, we don't have that as an option.. we have synthesis, combustion, single replacement, double replacement...and decomposition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any idea

OpenStudy (somy):

looks like single replacement and thermal decomposition

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so..should I say single replacement or decomposition?

OpenStudy (somy):

well if i ignore the thermal decomposition part then it'll be double replacement

OpenStudy (somy):

yup im pretty sure its double replacement

OpenStudy (jfraser):

it's a double replacement, followed by the decomposition of one of the products
