Explanation:

A Thermite Reaction is generally Iron Oxide (rust) reacting with Aluminum (Al) to produce molten/melted iron. The reaction is initiated by the heat from burning magnesium ribbon which is placed in the iron oxide/aluminum mixture. This reaction is highly exothermic and produces molten metal at nearly about 3000°C.

Answer:

A thermite reaction is basically iron oxide (rust) reacting with aluminum to produce molten iron. The products are aluminium oxide, elemental iron, and a large amount of heat. ... The reaction is used for thermite welding, often used to join rail tracks.

Iron obtained in this process is in molten state.

Fe₂O₃ (s) + Al (s) →Al₂O₃ + 2 Fe(l) + Heat.
