Question

A is the second most abundant metal available next to aluminium on the earth. A forms
its magnetic oxide B, when steam is passed over metal A in red hot condition. A forms
an alloy C with carbon and nickel. C is used to make aircraft parts and propeller. Identify
and write names of B and C. Write the balancedchemical equation for the formation of
magnetic oxide.

Answer 1

Let us look at the answer:

Explanation:

• Iron is the second most abundant metal available on earth.
• A forms magnetic oxide B, Fe₃O₄ when steam is passed over A in red hot condition.
• the reaction is : 3Fe+ 4H₂O -----> Fe₃O₄ +4H₂
• A forms an alloy C, stainless steel used in aircraft parts.
