What type of reaction will occur with the following reactants? CaS + NaCl -->

A) double replacement
B) decomposition
C) synthesis
D) single replacement

A) double replacement

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

NaCl +CaS    →    Na₂S + CaCl₂

Balanced chemical equation:

2NaCl +CaS    →    Na₂S + CaCl₂

The given reaction is double replacement reaction in which cation and anions of each reactant exchange with each other.

Double replacement:

It is the reaction in which two compound exchange their ions and form new compounds.

AB + CD → AD +CB

Other options are incorrect because,

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

AB → A + B

Single replacement:

It is the reaction in which one elements replace the other element in compound.

AB + C → AC + B

Decomposition reaction:

It is the reaction in which one reactant is break down into two or more product.

AB → A + B
