Both processes require Oxygen.

Rusting (I think) is where metal reacts with oxygen and moisture and becomes oxidises.

Burning or combustion, ALWAYS needs Oxygen to occur.

Hope this helps!

One difference between rusting and burning?

Rusting is a slow chemical reaction between iron and oxygen, forming iron oxide (rust), while burning is a rapid chemical reaction between a substance and oxygen, releasing heat and usually producing light and smoke. Rusting occurs at a much slower pace compared to burning.


What type of change such as burning or rusting causes a substance change?

chemical change


What is rusting and burning?

They are all oxidation. Burning is much faster than the other two and releases large quantities of heat. Rusting and tarnishing are much slower. Tarnishing typically shows a change in color and very little in the way of physical change. Rusting slowly eats away the material as it combines with the oxygen.


What is a physical change melting ice or burning paper or rusting iron or burning gasoline?

Meting ice: you start with H2O and finish with H2O


What have rusting and Burning Got in common?

Both rusting and burning are forms of oxidation reactions. In both processes, a material combines with oxygen to form new compounds. Rusting typically involves the corrosion of metals, while burning is the combustion of organic materials, resulting in the release of heat and light.

How are rusting the same as burning?

In some ways. Rusting is an oxidation reaction similar to fire and it does release heat, but it is so slow that the heat does not affect the reaction. In a fire the heat released goes helps sustain the reaction.
