1. Carbon monoxide is commonly used to strip off oxygen atoms from metals. This
reaction shows the first step. If more CO is present, eventually all oxygen atoms will
be grabbed by CO and manganese (Mn) metal will be left. This is how metal ores get
converted to metals.
Before: MnO2 + CO Mn2O3 + CO2
After: 2MnO2 + CO Mn2O3 + CO2
2. Your automobile produces nitrogen dioxide because combustion in the cylinders
convert some nitrogen in the air to various nitrogen oxides. In contact with water,
nitrogen dioxide turns into nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide. Both are unhealthy.
Before: NO2 + H2O HNO3 + NO
After: 3NO2 + H2O 2HNO3 + NO
3. All the combustion reactions need oxygen , like combustion of butane
Before: C4H10 + O2 CO2 + H2O
After: 2C4H10 + 13O2 8CO2 + 10H2O
Before: Al + O2 Al2O3
After: 4Al + 3O2 2Al2O3
