Rust, which is a coating of iron oxide on steel or iron, is an example of a heterogeneous mixture. Its components can be chemically separated.

Iron (Not rusted) is an element. However, when iron is in contact with air and water, rust will form on its surface. Rust is an oxide of iron and rust is a compound. Since rust is red/brown in colour it means that the iron has been oxidised to oxidation state '3'. , by the action of water and air. The chemical symbol form iron is Fe (Ferrum - Latin) The chemical formula for rust is Fe2O3 (Ferric oxide). There are other oxides of iron . They are FeO (ferrous oxide = green in colour) and Fe3O4 ( magnetite - grey/black in colour)
ummmmm....... you really cant figure this one out. think about it what rusts? iron. so therefore rust must be some combination of iron and another material. in this case oxygen. so your formula would be Fe3O2 should be Fe2O3; ferric oxide.
Rust is nothing but Ferrous oxide, also known as iron oxide, Iron (III) oxide, or Fe2O3. The outermost layer of the iron, which is in contact with the atmosphere, attracts oxygen and forms iron oxide which is called rusting. The rust itself forms a layer over the iron and prevents further iron oxide formation. When iron rusts the red substance formed is actually a mixture of Hydrated Iron(III) oxides and hydroxides.

Well, iron fillings can't really be a mixture, since there aren't two different substances here. ________________________ But to answer the question- 1. Iron Filings are homogeneous as they are of the same or similar kind (from the definition of homogeneous). 2. They are a homogeneous substance being a physical material which has discrete existence (from the definition of substance).
Iron coated with rust can be considered a heterogeneous object.
Pure Iron is considered as Homogeneous. Whereas, Iron with rust or other impurities is Heterogeneous.
Rust is considered a type of heterogeneous mixture. It is not uniform, and it has various visible components that can be separated mechanically.

it is ninja sajwooo
it is an element because the Heterogeneous has been found to the most biggest element in the world i am a teacher
No - essentially iron rust [Fe2O3] is defined as the oxidized derivative of the metal Iron [Fe] However, if the iron rust is not properly prepared we may get contamination. These include Iron Hydroxide, Iron, etc. Hope this helps - bwabwa
in its pure form, iron is an element, but that may not be what you are referring to.... if you have iron oxide (rust), this is a compound of iron and oxygen.
Actually, Rust is a mixture, of two compounds = Hydrated Iron(III) oxide [Fe2O3.nH2O] and Hydrated Iron(III) oxide-hydroxide [FeO(OH).nH2O] . Both the compounds are red giving colour to Rust.
how is rust a mixture
