Answer:

Chromium (III) Oxide (Cr₂O₃)

Carbon monoxide (CO)

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given:

Reactant = Cr and CO₂

Incomplete reaction = Cr(s) + CO₂(g)

Product = ?

Solution:

Name of the Reactants

Chromium (Cr)

Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Chromium (Cr) is a metal and CO₂ is a gas.

They react with each other in which carbon dioxide passes over the chromium metal and form its oxide with carbon monoxide.

Below is the complete balanced reaction

2Cr + 3CO₂ ----------> Cr₂O₃ + 3CO

Chromium + Carbon Dioxide ------> Chromium (III) Oxide + Carbon monoxide

So from this reaction two products will obtained that is

Product:

Chromium (III) Oxide (Cr₂O₃)

Carbon monoxide (CO)
