Choose Your Option
A. \(\mathrm{C(graphite)} + \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{g})\rightarrow \mathrm{CO}(\mathrm{g})\)
B. \(\mathrm{CO}(\mathrm{g}) + \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{g})\rightarrow \mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{g})\)
C. \(\mathrm{Mg}(\mathrm{s}) + \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{g})\rightarrow \mathrm{MgO}(\mathrm{s})\)
D. \(\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{C(graphite)} + \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{g})\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{CO}_2(\mathrm{g})\)
