Rusting of iron is a slow type of combustion?
Rusting is an oxydation but not a combustion.
What is the difference between a closed combustion furnace and open combustion furnace?
what is the purpose of refractory lining in furnace
What is the similarities between rusting and respiration?
Rusting is the corosion of metal as a result of the combined action of atomspheric oxygen and water. While respiration is the release of energy as a result of breaking down of food in the body.
What is the general equation for rusting nails combustion reaction?
If they are Iron Nails it is:FeH + O2 --> CO2 + H2OThis is Unbalanced
Why is the chemical reaction for rusting steel similar to combustion of fossil fuel?
i dont noe i am also searching god help
Process of rusting is same as combustion?
Rusting is similar to combustion in that oxygen is a required reactant. However, classic combustion has carbon dioxide and water as products, whereas rusting simply has a metal oxide as a product.
Rusting of iron is a slow type of combustion?
Rusting is an oxydation but not a combustion.
Is there any difference between rusting and combustion since both involve oxidation?
Differences:RUSTING :Rusting is a slow process.Little heat is released.Both air and moisture are necessary for rusting.COMBUSTION:Burning is fast oxidation.large amounts of heat are released.Only air is necessary for combustion.In other words, Rusting is much slower than combustion, and rusting in the strictest sense can occur only with iron or its alloys.
Can the process of rusting be called combustion?
No; it is not combustion because in combustion substance react with oxygen first but in rusting the substance react with hydrogen first
Is rusting a slow combustion?
yes
Is rusting of iron a combustion process?
No. Combustion is where something burns. Rusting is an example of oxidisation. ------------------ Yes, rusting is an example of slow combustion. And yes it is an oxidation reaction too, as Combustion is an oxidation reaction with an evolution of heat and/or light. In rudting there is: 1. Relase of energy. 2. Oxidation Hence, rusting is considered an oxidation reaction.
What is the difference between spontaneous combustion and rapid combustion?
differentiate rapid combustion to spontaneous combustion
What are the difference between respiration and combustion?
Respiration is breathing Combustion is burning
Is most used in reference to a combustion reaction?
Rusting is a reaction used mostly for combustion
What are the differences between rusting and respiration?
rusting is a process in which iron oxide is formed on iron in the presence of oxygen and water. respiration includes the burning or combustion of food for the release of energy with the presence of oxygen or without oxygen.
What is the difference between a closed combustion furnace and open combustion furnace?
what is the purpose of refractory lining in furnace
