Predicting Products of Chemical Reactions: Single Displacement
Single replacement reactions replace one element from a compound with another element.
–A compound and an element react, and the element switches places with part of the original compound.
- A + BC –> B + AC where A is a metal, or
- A + BC –> C + BA where A is a non-metal
Writing Ionic Compounds
Once again let’s look at calcium iodide:
What are their oxidation numbers?
Cross them (only the numbers…no charges!)
Don’t write ones!
Rewrite the formula
