Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction because magnesium is being oxidized and oxygen is being reduced. It is also a combustion reaction because it involves oxygen and produces energy. Additionally, it is a synthesis reaction because two or more substances combine to form a more complex product. Therefore, all options A, B, and C are correct.
