Answer:
they combine to form metal oxide
Answer:
Wheel and axles
Explanation:
Clocks run on a complex system of gear trains. This provides the energy to turn the hands of the clock. A high-ratio gear train gears the weight drum way up so that you don't have to rewind the clock very often. This somehow disengages, slips or ratchets the gear train so the clock can be rewound and set.
Answer:
The combination of oxygen with other substances to produce new chemical products is called <u>Oxidation</u>.
Explanation:
Oxidation reactions are defined as,
In terms of Inorganic chemistry:
(i) <u>Removal of Electrons: </u>
Example: Mg → Mg²⁺ + 2 e⁻
(ii) <u>Addition of Oxygen:</u>
Example: 2 Mg + O₂ → 2 MgO
In terms of Organic chemistry:
(i) <u>Addition of Electrons: </u>
Example: Cl₂ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻
(ii) <u>Addition of Hydrogen:</u>
Example: H₂CCH₂ + H₂ → H₃CCH₃
Answer:
Explanation:
Magnesium when it oxidizes has a valence of 2.
Oxygen, when it mixes with something, has a valence of - 2
So Mg and O2 will form something, but what? The answer is MgO
Mg + O2 ===> MgO
To balance this equation, you need 2 Magnesiums on the right and 2 Oxygens also on the right. The left will need a two Magnesiums.
The balanced equation will be
2Mg + O2 ====> 2MgO
Answer:
I think it should be Carbon.
