What is compound
A compound consists of two or more elements or compound mixed chemically
how does magnesium,copper,zinc and iron react to oxygen
add oxide to the ends of each element
State examples of alkali compounds
lithium,sodium and potassium
State their reactions (alkali compounds) with water
(alkali compound) + water =(AC) hydroxide + hydrogen gas
what is electrolysis
a chemical decomposition of a compound to its elements by passing an electric current through the compound
