in a metal when their
is presence of oxygen and water rusting takes place
When the iron and the vapors of the water chemically react with each other then the Rusting take place.
A chemical change has taken place
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.
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.
No,because distilled water has no salts
This takes place in the mitochondria.
No, rusting takes place over a fairly long time.
Rusting is an oxydation reaction.
oxidation takes place (rusting)
as it takes a lot of time
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.
A chemical change has taken place
Water and oxygen are needed.
Erosion. Don't get this mixed up with Corrosion which is rusting. The term Erode, refers to something breaking down. Kinda like decomposition.
Plz answer
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.
