The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "(2) the cathode in a voltaic cell and the anode in an electrolytic cell." At the status of electrode does oxidation occur in a voltaic cell and in an electrolytic cell is that the cathode in a voltaic cell and the anode in <span>an electrolytic cell</span>
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
I'm not completely sure about the explosion part but I know oxygen fuels fire.
Clap your hands each part word you eat and you will get your answer.
Do you need us to balance it?

Mg is the reducing agent to give 2 electrons to O.
Mg becomes Mg2+ and O becomes O2-. These 2 ions form an ionic structure called MgO
