Question

Iron oxide reacts with aluminum to give aluminum oxide and iron. What kind of chemical reaction is this?

Answer 1

The chemical equation would look something like this... (keep in mind the subscripts are not there, because we can't find them with the given data)

FeO + Al -> AlO + Fe

In this case it is a SINGLE REPLACEMENT Reaction

This is because the Iron and Aluminum swapped places (were replaced). Only one replacement occurred... so that's where the single part of it comes from.

Answer 2

If Its For The Test, Its D [Synthesis]
