mg+02=mg0
feso4+02=feso4+2...in first oxidazation takes place and in second it forms pripate
In first case magnesium is burning in presence of oxygen and give. 2Magnesium +Oxygen gives 2magnesiumoxide While ferrous sulphate burns in limited O2 then 2FeSO4 ---- Fe2O3+SO2+2fe
Combination and decomposition reaction
Burning of magnesium ribbon is a combination reaction whereas heating of ferrous sulphate crystals is a decomposition reaction
Burning of magnesium ribbon is combination reaction whereas heating of ferrous sulphate crystals is thermal decomposition reaction.
