Chapter 3, Problem 9STP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Formation of Magnesium oxide by the reaction between magnesium and explosive oxygen, wrong statement for this reaction is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

When the metal reacts with the oxygen, they form metal oxides, which are found in powdery form. Magnesium reacts with explosive oxygen, an exothermic reaction. In an exothermic reaction, the reactants are highly reactive and formed a product with energy loss.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 9STP

Correct Answer: The correct option is (d).

Explanation of Solution

Reason for correct option: In a chemical reaction, the nature is different from the reactant’s nature. So, the physical properties and chemical properties of magnesium oxide cannot be similar to the properties of oxygen and magnesium.

Hence, is a correct option.

Conclusion

Reasons for incorrect options:

Option (a), mass of magnesium and the mass of oxygen is equal to the mass of magnesium oxide, by the law of conservation. Hence, this is an incorrect option.

Option (c) There is the formation of a new product as an oxide in a chemical reaction. Hence, this is an incorrect option.

Option (d) The formed product is an example of metal oxide which is categorized as a compound, the compound is formed with a combination of two or more different elements. Hence, this is an incorrect option.
