Why does chemical reaction occur? What are the different types of chemical reaction.
In general, chemical reactions occur because reactants are trying to become more stable in nature.
Chemical reaction occurs as a result of breaking and making of bonds resulting in redistribution of atoms among various reacting species in different ways.
Accordingly the reactions are classified in different types. They are –
(1) Combination reaction or synthesis reaction
(2) Decomposition reaction/Analysis reaction
(3) Displacement reaction
(4) Double displacement reaction/Methasis reaction
(5) Oxidation and Reduction reaction.
