Consider the following equation of the chemical reaction of a metal M: 4M + 3O2 --------> 2M2O3This equation represents:(a) combination reaction as well as reduction reaction(b) decomposition reaction as well as oxidation reaction(c) oxidation reaction as well as decomposition reaction(d) combination reaction as well as oxidation reaction
Correct Answer: (d) combination reaction as well as oxidation reaction
Explanation: 4M + 3O2 --------> 2M2O3
In the given reaction, Metal combines with oxygen to form a single compound. Therefore, it is a combination reaction as well as an oxidation reaction as the addition of oxygen also takes place.
