An oxide ion is oxidized to an oxygen atom by what?
An oxygen atom can only be oxidized by some element with an equal or higher electronegativity. So, oxygen can be oxidized by fluorine (e.g., OF2) or by another oxygen atom (e.g., O2).
What is the reaction of zinc and oxygen?
Zinc Oxide. Whenever a metal reacts with oxygen, it bonds them both together, like magnesium+oxygen=magnesium oxide
What does lead and oxygen make?
lead oxide
What is the word equation for sodium and oxygen?
sodium oxide (maybe) because when an element react with oxygen an oxide is formed
When iron oxide is reduced?
To reduce a compound is to remove oxygen from it. Iron oxide can be reduced to iron by removing its oxygen atoms.
When nitrous oxide is converted to nitrogen and oxygen what is the term used to describe the oxygen atoms formed?
nascent oxygen molecular oxygen product
Why SO2 acts as a reducing agent?
Because it may remove oxygen from a metal oxide and is converted into SO3.
What happen to the original magnesium after it has been burned?
If completely burnt (in excess of oxygen), all the magnesium will be converted to magnesium oxide.
How does an atom of oxygen get converted into oxide ion when any carbon atom is close to it and vice verse?
This does not happen. Carbon forms covalent bonds with oxygen, not ionic bonds.
Is oxygen oxide an acid or a base?
Oxygen oxide is not a real substance.
How sulphur di oxide converts into sulphur tri oxide?
Sulfur dioxide is converted to Sulfur trioxide using Oxygen and a oxidizing catalyst like Vanadium(V) oxide:SO2 + O2 --V2O5--> SO3
What elements are found in metal oxide?
The metal itself and oxygen. For example, in ferrous oxide or ferric oxide, there is iron and oxygen.
An oxide ion is oxidized to an oxygen atom by what?
An oxygen atom can only be oxidized by some element with an equal or higher electronegativity. So, oxygen can be oxidized by fluorine (e.g., OF2) or by another oxygen atom (e.g., O2).
What is a metal oxide?
a metal oxide is a metal that is joined to oxygen. ex: copper oxide is copper joined to oxygen. :) :P by meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
How can you make oxide?
Burn the element in oxygen and you get the oxide
How many elements are there in potassium oxide?
There are 2 elements in potassium oxide, which are potassium and oxygen.
What is beneficial enzymes?
Beneficial enzymes are SOD(super oxide dismutase), glutation peroxidase and catalase etc.
