1. Na + Cl2 NaCl

2. Al + O2  Al2O3

3. KBr + Cl2 KCl + Br 2

4. CH4 + O2 C02 + H2 0

5. NH 3 + Cl 2 N2 + HCl

6. H2 S + O2 H 2O + S

7. PbO + NH3  Pb + N2 + H 20

8. CaO + K K2 O + Ca

9. H202  H2 O + O2

10. Zn + Fe2O3  ZnO + Fe

11. Na + H2SO4 Na2SO4 + H2

12. KClO3  KCl + O2

13. NH3 + O2  N2 + H 2O

14. Fe + H2O  Fe3O4 + H2

15. FeCl3 + NH4OH  Fe(OH) 3 + NH4Cl

Extension:

16. Pb(NO3)2  PbO + NO2 + O2

17. FeS2 + O2  Fe2O3 + SO2
