1) Chemical equation.

$4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow2FeO_3$

2) Types of reaction.

In the reaction above, we can see that two different compounds get together to form a new compound. This is called a synthesis or a combination.

Decomposition: A compound is broken down into simpler compounds.

Combustion: A compound containing Carbon and Hydrogen combines with oxygen.

Double replacement: Positive and negative ions in two compounds switch places.
