Question

explain the process of experimental setup of
metal with steam ​

Answer 1

Reactions of metals with steam

Magnesium reacts very slowly with water. However, it reacts vigorously with steam:

magnesium + steam → magnesium oxide + hydrogen

Mg(s) + H2O(g) → MgO(s) + H2(g)

Metals which react with steam form the solid metal oxide and hydrogen gas.

In general, the more reactive the metal, the more rapid the reaction. Aluminium is unusual, because it is a reactive metal that does not react with water.
