Isnt a redox reactions when the reaction has oxidation and reduction at the same time???

The how come S + 2O2--> SO4 is a redox reaction???

well i finally understood it
u see the oxidation is easy to get since sulphur gains oxygen atom
now reduction: the oxidation is where the oxygen here becomes from an atom of no oxidation state to losing being of oxidation state of -2 in SO4, thus lose of oxidation state is reduction . that's it ;D!

OK June 2005.

Which reacts with cold water only when finely powdered?
A. Calcium
B. Copper
C. Sodium
D. Magnesium

I put Sodium because its higher in the reactivity series, but the ms said magnesium...
WHY?? help urgently..?
well its in the chapter "PERIODIC TABLE"..where one of the things u gotta learn is that from group II elements magnesium and beryllium react only with steam...and with cold water if powdered, to produce their oxide and liberate hydrogen..while as u knw otha elements of group II react with cold water to form their hydroxide and liberate hydrogen gas

magnesium chloride is ALREADY a salt..thus won't react with anything let it be an acid or not to form anotha salt...thus A where that option has a cross!

I thought about it..and thought so. But, I did a bit of research and found that it could react! That's just too confusing :(

15) C...if it absorbs 10 from 1000cm^3 then it would absorb twice as much of heat from 500cm^3 since volume is halved!
20)HCL + BaNO3-->HNO3+BACL ....therefore the acidic nitric acid decrease the pH and since barium reacts with chlorine,therfore no precipitate
29)metals donot have 6 in their outa shell and always form ionic compounds thus B
