Which of the above reactions is an example of combustion of an Inorganic substance? (5 points)

2

Explanation:

A combustion reaction must include O2 as a reactant.

An inorganic substance almost never includes carbon.

So, by process of elimination:

1. Carbon is a reactant = probably not

2. Has O2, no carbon = yes

3. O2 is not a reactant = no

4. Carbon is a reactant = probably not
