Chemistry: The Drama of Reactions

Chemistry is literally just high school relationship drama disguised as math. Synthesis is a marriage

where two become one, while decomposition is the messy divorce. Single replacement

is when a hotter element kicks you out to take your spot, and double replacement

is a straight-up partner swap. If that swap creates a solid chunk, it’s precipitation.

If it’s acid and base making salty water, that’s neutralization. Combustion is just

fire. When you balance these equations, never touch the tiny subscript numbers

or you fail immediately. Only change the big coefficients and save Oxygen for last or you

will lose your mind.
