Why do metals react with oxygen?
Metals react with oxygen because of a process called oxidation. When metals are exposed to oxygen in the air, the metal atoms lose electrons to the oxygen atoms, forming metal oxides. This reaction occurs because metals have a tendency to lose electrons and oxygen has a high affinity for gaining electrons. The formation of metal oxides is a type of chemical reaction that changes the properties of the metal and can lead to corrosion or rusting.
What element reacts with a metal or a non-metal to form an oxide?
oxides are formed when a element reacts with Oxygen
Does gallium react with oxygen?
of course not gallium does not react with oxygen you retards cuz if it did then something would happen if you would it in the air cuz oxygen is in the air
What would happen if Argon and Copper mixed together?
If Argon gas and Copper metal were mixed together, they would not react chemically because Argon is an inert gas and Copper is a stable metal. They would simply coexist without interacting with each other.
What do you get when you add nitrogen and oxygen together?
If you just let it in, It would be 99% of ordinary air. If you send a spark through it, it would be nitrogen dioxide (it is toxic).
What chemicals can heat water when added to it?
You want something that reacts with water and is exothermic. An example would be an alkali metal (such as sodium), or perhaps oxygen salts that react with water
What two substances would react together in a combustion?
These substances are a combusible material and oxygen.
Compounds composing of metal and oxygen?
A compound containing a metal plus oxygen would be a metal oxide. For example: Sodium plus oxygen would produce Sodium oxide, Bismuth and Oxygen would produce Bismuth oxide, Zinc plus Oxyen would produce Zinc oxide and so on.
Why would an unknown chemical not be put into a metal container?
because it may have an adverse reation to the metal, for example and acid would react with the metal and disolve it!
Does water react with water?
no, water and water are the same thing. If you put it all together, you would still have water, nothing changed except for quantity.
What would be the result when alkali metals react with oxygen?
Basic oxides
Would potassium bond with oxygen?
Yes. Potassium will react readily with oxygen to form potassium peroxide.
