Answer:

A.) combustion

Step-by-step explanation:

Combustion reactions are a specific type of redox reaction which always have the same general structure: CₓHᵧ + O₂ ---> H₂O + CO₂ + heat/light

Decomposition reactions are reactions which involve a molecule breaking down into smaller compounds/elements. They have the general structure: AB ---> A + B

Double replacement reactions are reactions in which the cation of one compound is swapped with the cation of another compound. They have the general structure: AB + CD ---> AD + CB
