Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
We have to first put down the balanced reaction equation;
MgO+C------->CO2(g)+Mg
We then have to identify each specie in the reaction equation. The reactants are;
Magnesium oxide and carbon
The products are
Carbon dioxide and magnesium metal
So the word equation is as follows;
Magnesium oxide + carbon ----> carbon dioxide + magnesium
In a sentence form;
One mole of magnesium oxide reacts with one mole of carbon to yield one mole of carbon dioxide and one mole of magnesium metal.
