Burning Mg in the air and reacting with O2 forming a white powder of MnO
So the equation is going to be:
Mn + O2 ⇒ MnO (this equation is not conserved)
to make it equilibrium:
1- First we should put 2Mno to equal the O2 on both sides.
So it will be:
Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO
2- Second we should put 2Mn to equal the Mn on both sides.
2Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO (this equation is conserved)
After putting the physical states the final equilibrium equation is going to be:
Δ
2Mg(s) + O2(g)⇒ 2MgO(s)
Explanation:
both reduction and oxidation are occurring simultaneously, this is known as a redox reaction. An oxidizing agent is substance which oxidizes something else. In the above example, the iron(III) oxide is the oxidizing agent. A reducing agent reduces something else
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The carbon-oxygen double bond is polar.
However, carbon dioxide is a linear molecule. The two dipoles cancel out each other.
Thus, carbon dioxide is a non polar molecule with polar bond.
