When zinc metal reacts with oxygen gas, 2Zn(s) + O2(g) → 2ZnO(g), large amounts of light and heat are released. A student states that this reaction is a combustion reaction but not a redox reaction. Do you agree? Defend your answer by explaining whether or not it meets the requirements of each type of reaction. (6 points)

A neutral element on its own in its standard state has an oxidation number of zero.

The sum of the oxidation numbers for a neutral molecule must be zero.

The sum of the oxidation numbers for an ion is equal to the net charge on the ion.

In a compound or simple ion: group 1 metals are always +1, group 2 metals are always +2.

In a compound: other metals (not group 1 or 2) prefer a positive oxidation state.

In a compound: hydrogen prefers +1, oxygen prefers -2, fluorine prefers -1.

In a compound with no oxygen present the other halogens will also prefer -1.

Explanation:

passed in september 1935, these laws are known as nuremberg laws.   they forbid jews from marrying but not directly forced them to divorce aryans. what is most noticeable is the fact that the jews were defranchised, meaning by this that they were not expected to have any civil rights, including the right to vote. the right answer is deprived of the right to vote.

i'm pretty sure its b i might be wrong though!
