Question

E) Give a balanced equation for the following conversions
i) conversion of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide
ii) formation of mercury from mercuric oxide
iii) zinc to zinc sulphate using an acid
iv) water from hydrogen peroxide
v) burning of magnesium in oxygen

Answer 1

Answer:

(i)

$2CO + O_2 \rightarrow 2CO_2$

(ii)

$2HgO \xrightarrow{\Delta} 2Hg + O_2$

(iii)

$Zn + H_2SO_4 \rightarrow ZnSO_4$

(iv)

Please check whether the question is correct for this part as I'm not sure such a reaction exists in one step.

(v)

$2Mg + O_2 \xrightarrow{\Delta} 2MgO$
