What is rusting mean?
A chemical change has taken place
Is rust an element or a mixture?
Rusting is also called as the process of slow eating of metals. It takes place in various metals and has no fixed composition. Basically, it is the reaction of some gas and the moisture in the atmosphere with the metal which leads to rusting. Commonly we relate rusting with iron which reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere and forms iron oxide. Also, silver rusts too leading to its black colour.
How oxygen is needed for rusting and decaying to take place?
Oxygen is a very important agent needed for rusting and decaying to take place. Oxygen binds with the surface and creates water while breaking down the substance.
Can rusting of iron take place in distilled water?
No,because distilled water has no salts
When does resperation takes place?
This takes place in the mitochondria.
Is rust a fast reaction?
No, rusting takes place over a fairly long time.
What chemical reaction takes place when an iron nail rusts?
Rusting is an oxydation reaction.
What do metals do when they combine with non metals like oxygen?
oxidation takes place (rusting)
Why is rusting a kind of slow oxidation?
as it takes a lot of time
Does rust increase the weight of metal?
It will add mass to the nail. When the chemical reaction of rusting takes place, some oxygen is bounded to the nail. The oxygen is what increases the mass.
What is rusting mean?
A chemical change has taken place
What are the conditions for rusting to take place?
Water and oxygen are needed.
When shells deform which reaction takes place in sea?
Erosion. Don't get this mixed up with Corrosion which is rusting. The term Erode, refers to something breaking down. Kinda like decomposition.
In which place rusting of iron occurs the more- ahmedabad or kanyakumari?
Plz answer
When rusting of iron take plce?
When Iron became in contact with water and oxygen or other strong oxidants or acids the rusting took place. The rusting is an electrochemical process which started with the transfer of electrons form iron to oxygen. If salt is present then it also accelerate the rusting process.
