Question

Carbon burns in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide Which chemical equation describes this reaction?

Answer 1

The reaction may be called either combination reactions (because carbon and oxygen is combined to give carbon dioxide ), endothermic reaction ( because it burns to give carbon dioxide ) or oxidation ( because oxygen is added )

Hope this helps you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Answer:

C(s)+O₂(g)Δ→CO₂(g)

Explanation:

This is an oxidation reaction, where carbon is oxidized from  

C(0) to C(+IV) .

The chemical reaction for the process is:

C(s)+O₂(g)→CO₂(g)

This is a common industrial equation, and can be found in blast furnaces and the extraction of aluminium, where graphite (carbon) anodes burn in the presence of oxygen to give out carbon dioxide.
