    3. combination reaction
    4. Double-replacement

      A decomposition reaction is the opposite of a combination reaction. 
      • In a combination reaction, two or more substances combine to form new substances releasing energy.
      • A single chemical breaks down into two or more different compounds during the decomposition reaction.
      • While two or more reactants combine to generate a single substance in a combination reaction.
      • Decomposition process is therefore referred to as the combination reaction's polar opposite.
