CO2 is the emperical formula of carbon dioxide
This is an example of displacement reaction
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The chemical reaction in which the one element replaces the other element in a compound is called a displacement reaction. This reaction is also called a replacement reaction.
AB + C -----> AC +B
2ZnS + 3O2 -----> 2ZnO + 2SO2
- This happens when A is more reactive than B and gives a stable product. Here the zinc sulfide compound reacts with the oxygen element to the stable product of zinc oxide and sulfur dioxide.
- In short, the more reactive element displaces the less reactive element is called a displacement reaction.
Rows of elements are called periods. The period number<span> of an element signifies the highest unexcited energy level for an electron in that element.
</span>Columns of elements help define element groups<span>. </span>Elements within a group share<span> several common properties. Groups are elements have the same outer electron arrangement.</span>
