Predicting Reaction Products
Predict the products, and balance each reaction. Use the reaction
type as a hint. For reactions with a transition metal, use
your periodic table to find the most likely charge on the metal in the
product.

Decomposition - Many compounds decompose in predictable patterns:
Carbonates (compounds containing CO32–)
give off carbon dioxide and leave oxide compounds behind.
Sulfates (with SO42–) give
off sulfur trioxide and leave oxide compounds behind.
Hydroxides (with OH1–) produce water
and leave oxide compounds behind.
Chlorates (with ClO31–)
give off oxygen and leave chloride compounds behind.
Hydrates (with H2O) break up into water and anhydrous
compounds.
Binary compounds (made of just two elements) break down into their elements.

with a positive charge. Use your periodic table to determine what charge
the "new" metal is most likely to have.

Combustion - Combustion reactions always have hydrocarbons (C &
H) or carbohydrates (C, H, & O) combining with pure oxygen (O2).
The products are always carbon dioxide and water. ("Incomplete Combustion"
results from a lack of available oxygen, and gives carbon monoxide as a product
instead of carbon dioxide. It can't be predicted as a likely reaction
based on the reactants.)
