Characterize the reaction according to various criteria 2CO + O2 = 2CO2 + Q

The reaction takes place between substances such as carbon monoxide and oxygen. As a result of the reaction, a substance is formed, carbon dioxide or tetravalent carbon monoxide. Heat is also generated in this reaction. Hence this reaction is exothermic. Also, this reaction is redox. In it, oxygen is an oxidizing agent, and therefore is reduced, and carbon is a reducing agent and, therefore, is oxidized. It can also be noted that this reaction proceeds as a compound, when one complex is formed from two simple substances. also this reaction is not reversible and homogeneous

The molecular equation of the reaction can be written as follows:

2 CO + O2 = 2 CO2 + Q.
