SOLUTION:

An equation for the reaction of: a) iron with steam


When a metal reacts with steam then the products formed are metal oxide and hydrogen gas.

Metal + steam --------> Metal oxide + Hydrogen


When red hot iron reacts with steam to form iron(II,III) oxide and hydrogen.


3Fe(s) + 4H2O(g) steam -------> Fe3O4 (s) + 4H2(g)



b) calcium with water:

When a metal reacts with water( cold water or hot water) then the products formed are metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas.


Metal + steam --------> Metal hydroxide + Hydrogen


Calcium reacts with cold water to form calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas:


Ca(s)+ 2H2O(l) --------> Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)


c) potassium with water.


Potassium reacts violently with cold water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas:


2K(s)+ 2H2O(l) --------> 2KOH(aq) + H2(g) + heat.

In this reaction so much heat is produced get hydrogen gas formed catches fire and burns explosively.


HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU....
