Rusting of iron is an example of?
Oxidation.Rust is an example of an oxidation reaction between iron and oxygen. This is why a coat of oil on iron-containing metal prevents rust--the oil stops oxygen from reaching the metal's surface so that the oxidation reaction cannot take place.
Is oxidation chemical or physical reaction?
Oxidation is the recombination of atoms of one molecule with oxygen. An example might be the rusting of iron: 2Fe(s) + 3O2(g) --> 2Fe2O3(s) Therefore, oxidation is chemical reaction.
What is an example of oxidation water evaporating sugar melting paper burning or all of the above?
Burning of paper is an oxidation reaction.
What is a redox reaction Give an example?
When the oxidation states of reactants in a chemical reaction are changed (parallel phenomena of oxidation and reduction) a redox reaction occur:Fe2O3 + 2 Al = Al2O3 + 2 Fe
True or false the burning of wood is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction?
True

Combustion is an example of?
A chemical reaction specifically oxidation
What is an example of oxidation reduction reaction?
When tarnish forms on silver
Rusting of steel is?
A good example of an oxidation reaction. The rusting of steel is essentially just rusting (oxidation) of iron.
Is oxidation reaction a single replacement reaction?
It can be, but it can also be other types of reaction. An example of an oxidation reaction that is also a single replacement would be Zn(s) + 2HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2. In this reaction Zn is oxidized and H is reduced.

Is oxidation a reaction between iron water and oxygen?
No. Oxidation is the loss of electrons by an atom, or equivalently an increase in the oxidation number of that atom. Rust formation is one example of oxidation.

Burning of paper is an oxidation reaction.

What occurs at the cathode of a galvanic cell?
An oxidation half-reaction
True or false the burning of wood is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction?
True
What are oxidation-reaction reactions do?
In an oxidation reaction there is addition of oxygen molecules or removal of hydrogen molecules from a compound and loss of electrons from an atom / ion . example - S + O2 = SO2
