Why would an iron bar rust in the rain?
The iron would react with the oxygen in the water to make iron oxide, or rust.
What type of material rust?
metal,iron, nails ,bar, steel,rod
Can graphite rackets rust?
No they will not get rust they are not iron to get rust. only iron get rust.
Why does rust decrease the strength of an iron bar?
The reason for this is because rust is weaker than iron and decreases strength. Iron rust flakes off and has holes in it that allow water and air to further corrode deeper layers of iron (like a pile of potato chips). Aluminium, stainless steel and other metals form a complete continuous layer and prevent further corrosion. It is not because of reduced surface area if anything the surface area is increased (especially with iron)AnswerI believe its because the overall surface area of the bar is decreased, hence the structural integrity of the bar is compromised. Strangely enough, when aluminum rusts the aluminum oxide on the surface of the metal increases resistance to further corrosion without reducing the surface area. love Tim xxx
Why iron does not rust?
Iron does rust by reacting with oxygen.
Which liquids rust faster?
Liquids do not rust, iron does, rust is Hydrated Iron (III) oxide, so the only substance which can rust iron is water
What happens to the molecules when a steel bar is left outside and starts rusting?
The molecules of iron combine with molecules of oxygen to form molecules of iron oxide- or rust.
What does rust and iron form?
Rust is an iron oxide, Fe2O3.
How is rust produced?
Rust is iron oxide. So when iron oxidizes you get rust. So iron and steel (iron and carbon) are prone to this happening while metal like aluminum well not rust.
What is formed when iron combines with oxygen in the air?
Iron oxide, commonly known as rust, is formed when iron combines with oxygen in the air through a chemical reaction. Rust has a reddish-brown color and weakens the structural integrity of iron over time.
Will soda make iron rust?
soda does not make iron rust ...
Is rust stronger than iron?
It depends on what you mean by "heavier." Rust is less dense than iron. However, if you allow 1 gram of iron to rust completely, you will have more than 1 gram of rust. if we have equal volume of pure iron and rust (ferric oxide) then rust is lighter than iron.
