| What should you look for in combustion reactions? | C, H, and O (like a CHOO, CHOO train, what does a choo choo train do?) |
| What do combustion reaction produce? | H2O and CO2 |
| What must you do first in a single displacement reaction? | Look to see if the single element is a metal or nonmetal |
| In a single displacement reaction a single element that is a metal will replace? | The metal in the compound |
| In a single displacement reaction a single nonmetal will replace what element in the compound? | The nonmetal in the compound |
| In a double replacement reaction you switch? | Like charges |
