The reduction of a metal oxide to form metal by using aluminium powder as a reducing agent is called a thermite reaction. It is an exothermic reaction in which a large amount of heat is evolved. ...Example: A mixture of iron (III) oxide and aluminium powder is ignited with a burning magnesium ribbon
