Question

Write chemical equation involving thermite reaction

Answer 1

A thermite reaction is basically iron oxide reacting with aluminum to produce molten iron. The reaction is initiated by heat from burning magnesium ribbon. It is generally used for boron (III) oxide, silicon (IV) oxide, chromium (III) oxide, manganese (IV) oxide, iron (III) oxide,iron (II,III) oxide, copper(II) oxide, and lead(II,IV) oxide.
It is basically a form of chemical reaction between two molecule.
Fe 2 O 3 + 2 Al → 2 Fe + Al 2 O 3
