Marking-scheme solution
(a) Combination reaction;
\[\mathrm{N}_{2}+3 \mathrm{H}_{2} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}
\]
(b) Decomposition reaction / Thermal Decomposition
\[2 \mathrm{~Pb}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2} \xrightarrow{\text { Heat }} 2 \mathrm{PbO}+4 \mathrm{NO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}
\]
(c) Displacement reaction;
\[\mathrm{Cu}+2 \mathrm{AgNO}_{3} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2}+2 \mathrm{Ag}
\]
