Let's call rusting "oxidation," because rust is oxidized iron. Carbon will oxidize, but it takes quite a bit of heat to get it to do so; the easiest way to oxidize carbon is to set it on fire and let it become carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Putting carbon in water won't cause the oxidation reaction to happen, because there's not enough heat.
What else can I help you with?
What makes iron rust lead nitrogen carbon dioxide or water?
The cause of iron rust is oxygen and water.
What are three examples of oxides?
Water is an oxide of hydrogen. Carbon dioxide is an oxide of carbon. Rust is an oxide of iron.
What are some products that have been made from Oxygen?
glass, rust, carbon dioxide, water
How do clean rust well water?
You use a sediment filter followed by a carbon filter
Does carbon rust?
The term "rust" technically applies only to iron oxides and its variations, so the element carbon cannot rust.
Does diamond rust?
no rust mostly happens to metals and diamonds are not metal
What gases causes iron to rust and candles to burn?
Oxygen is the gas that causes iron to rust. When iron is in contact with oxygen and water, it forms iron oxide (rust) as a result of a chemical reaction. Candles burn due to the combustion of wax, which releases carbon dioxide and water vapor.
What two substances are need to rust Iron?
ANSWER:oxygen and water
Does carbon make things rust?
No.
Can Coca-Cola rust a paperclip?
no because of the carbon dioxide, it is impossible to rust
Is rust considered a hydrocarbon?
Rust, chemically known as iron oxide, is not considered a hydrocarbon. Hydrocarbons are organic compounds made of hydrogen and carbon atoms. Rust forms when iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water.
Rust forms when what reacts with chemicals in rocks?
I consider that the word rust is not adequate for rocks; rocks can be destroyed with the action of acidic compounds from the atmosphere (carbon, sulfur, nitrogen oxides dissolved in water).
