Question

Write a balanced equation for each of the following reaction description and identify each type of reaction: a) solid bismuth(III) oxide and solid carbon react to form bismuth metal and carbon monoxide gas; b) Solid sodium chlorate is heated to form solid sodium chloride and oxygen gas; c) Butane gas (C4H10) react with oxgen gas to form two gaseous products, carbon dioxide and water.

Explanation / Answer

a) solid bismuth(III) oxide and solid carbon react to form bismuth metal and carbon monoxide gas; Bi2O3 + 3C --> 2Bi + 3CO : reduction reaction. b) Solid sodium chlorate is heated to form solid sodium chloride and oxygen gas; 2Na2Cl2O7 --> 4NaCl + 3O2 : decomposition c) Butane gas (C4H10) react with oxgen gas to form two gaseous products, carbon dioxide and water. 2C4H10 + 7O2 --> 8CO2 + 10H2O
