What does you call a chemical that contains a metal carbon and oxygen only?
There are many oxides of carbon (oxocarbons), of which the most common are carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbon monoxide (CO).Other less known oxides include carbon suboxide (C3O2) and mellitic anhydride (C12O9).There are also numerous unstable or elusive oxides, such as dicarbon monoxide (C2O), oxalic anhydride (C2O4), and carbon trioxide (CO3).
What is the balanced equation of the heat and zinc carbonate?
The carbonates that can be thermally decomposed . They form metal oxides and carbon dioxide. When white zinc carbonate powder when heated forms yellow/white zinc oxide and carbon dioxide gas: the balanced equation for zinc carbonate--------carbon dioxide zinc oxide is :ZnCO3 → ZnO + CO2
Is sulfur dioxide gas basic or acidic in nature?
sulphur dioxide is an acidic gas. Remember;- Groups 1 & 2 oxides are basic. None metal oxides are acidic.
When metals metal carbonates and metal oxides react with acid how is it possible to know what you will get?
Because when you use a certain metal say magnesium oxide with hydrochloric acid you will get: magnesium chloride magnesium carbonate + hydrochloric acid = salt + water + carbon dioxide.
Are non metal oxides basic?
No. Carbon dioxide when in water makes carbonic acid. Sulfur oxides, there are several, can form sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and more. Nitrogen oxides, several those also, form nitric acid, nitrous acid, etc. Hydrogen oxide, water, is neutral.
Is carbon often used to reduce metal oxides to the metal?
Yes, carbon has been used since ancient times to reduce metal ores and oxides to the metal.
Is carbon dioxide nonmetal?
Yes Carbon-Dioxide is a metal
Which type of oxide is formed when metals combine with oxygen?
Metal oxides form alkalis when they dissolve in water. Non-metal oxides for acids. For example: carbon dioxide + water --> carbonic acid magnesium oxide + water --> magnesium hydroxide
What is a result of combustion?
Combustion of metals forms metal oxides. Combustion of hydrocarbons, like methane, forms carbon dioxide and water.
Is carbon dioxide metal?
No. Carbon dioxide is a covalently bonded compound that is very different from a metal.
When heated a metal carbonate decomposes in to a metal oxide and a?
the metal carbonate decomposes into a metal oxide and carbon dioxide
What metal oxides can be converted to the metal by carbon reduction but not by hydrogen reduction?
any metals below carbon in the reactivity series. :)

Why does methane burn away but metals leave an ash?
The products of the complete combustion of methane are water vapor and carbon dioxide, which are gasses. Burning metals will form metal oxides, which are solid.
