1. When a mixture of aluminum and iron (II) oxide is heated, metallic iron and aluminum oxide are produced.

  2 Al + 3 FeO → 3 Fe + Al2O3

2. The complete combustion of isopropyl alcohol (C3H7OH), produces carbon dioxide and water vapor.

 2 C3H7OH + 9 O2 → 6 CO2 + 8 H2O

3. Lead (II) nitrate, when heated, decomposes to form lead (II) oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and molecular oxygen.

 2 Pb(NO3)2 → 2 PbO + 4 NO2 + O2

4. When solutions of potassium fluoride and calcium nitrate are mixed, potassium nitrate and calcium fluoride are produced.

  2 KF + Ca(NO3)2 → 2 KNO3 + CaF2
