What type of water rusts steel faster salt water fresh water or refrigerated water?
steel rusts fastest in salt water.. wonder why??? because salt water has sodium which can react to iron in steel.
Why does iron rust faster in salt water than in tap water?
Salt water contains Na+ & Cl- ions which are highly reactive with iron to form FeCl2 .So iron rust faster in salt water.
Do acids react with base to produce salt and water?
yes acid and base react with each other to form salt and water. for example, NaOH + HCl --------> NaCl + H2O
How do freshwater planarian react in salt water?
They dicinagrate
How you would separate a mixture of water sand salt and iron filings into its four component parts?
In solution, the salt will be dissolved in the water, the sand and iron will settle to the bottom of the container. Separate out the water, evaporate the water and the salt will remain, separate the sand and iron filings with a magnet.

Does the element Calcium react with water?
Technically salt does not react with water. It will dissolve in water which is not the same thing as causing a chemical reaction. Calcium by itself does not react with salt water -- it is dissolved into the water and is a crucial element of life for many salt-water species. Some compounds containing calcium may react with (or in) salt water.
What happens to iron powder and salt mixture when it is added to water?
The salt dissolves in the water and the iron does not.
Wouldn't salt scratch the surface of a cast iron flat top grill?
No, salt will not scratch the surface of a cast iron grill. Salt is the most highly recommended material used to clean cast iron.
What is the reaction of salt in the water at freezing temperature?
Salt doesn't react with water.
How does carbon dioxide react with fresh water as compared to salt water?
it does not react in fresh water
What substances are formed when iron is added to hydrochloric acid?
Fe + 2HCl → FeCl2 + H2↑Iron + Hydrochloric acid → Iron II chloride + Hydrogen gas
What is a metal that reacts to salt water but does not react to fresh water?
Magnesium. I believe Magnesium does not react to fresh water but salt water is very corrosive and will disolve the metal.
What happens to iron placed in a test tube with a stopper?
Iron and oxygen in a test tube alone will not react (observed by placing a piece of iron in a test tube with a stopper).Iron and water in a test tube alone will not react (observed by completely submerging a piece of iron in water in a test tube with a stopper).Iron, water and oxygen in a test tube will react (observed by placing a piece of iron in a test tube and submerging half of it with water). The following reaction will take place: iron + water + oxygen ----> hydrated iron(III) oxide. Hydrated iron(III) oxide is the chemical name for rust, which will appear as orange flaking on the piece of iron. To speed up this reaction you can use a bit of salt as a catalyst.
Why does iron rust faster in salt water than in tap water?
Salt water contains Na+ & Cl- ions which are highly reactive with iron to form FeCl2 .So iron rust faster in salt water.
Which metalswill be affected by salt water?
Iron and iron alloys can be corroded by salt solutions.
Do acids react with base to produce salt and water?
yes acid and base react with each other to form salt and water. for example, NaOH + HCl --------> NaCl + H2O
