Can iron oxide be physically separated?
The iron cannot be mechanically separated from it's oxide. The compounds [Fe2O3·nH2O, FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3] called "rust" are difficult to separate chemically into iron water and oxygen.
When iron rusts iron atoms are destroyed true or false?
false
What gas in the air reacts with iron to make it rusty?
oxygen reacts with iron and forms rust Oxygen reacts with iron to form iron oxide.
Will oxygen and iron burn?
Iron will burn in pure oxygen.
How is iron extracted from rocks?
Iron ores consists mostly of oxygen and iron atoms bonded together into molecules. To convert these oxides or iron to metallic iron, they must be smelted or sent through a direct reduction process to remove the oxygen. Oxygen-iron bonds are strong, and to remove the iron from the oxygen, a stronger elemental bond must be presented to attach to the oxygen. Carbon is used because the strength of a carbon-oxygen bond is greater than that of the iron-oxygen bond, and the process is done at high temperatures. The iron ore must be powdered and mixed with coke, which is essentially carbon, and the whole must be burnt in the smelting process.It is reduced with carbon by smelting. It is placed in a furnace with carbon coke and lime is added to reduce impurities

Do all silicate minerals contain iron?
silicon, oxygen, iron and magnesium
When iron rusts iron atoms are destroyed True False?
False, iron atoms are converted to iron oxide
When iron rusts iron atoms are destroyed true or false?
false
When iron and oxygen combine to form rust what is are the reactants?
What happens when iron and oxygen react?
What gas in the air reacts with iron to make it rusty?
oxygen reacts with iron and forms rust Oxygen reacts with iron to form iron oxide.
Will oxygen and iron burn?
Iron will burn in pure oxygen.
Fe separated from Al physically?
Iron can be separated with an (electro)magnet.

What elements are found in iron sulfate?
Iron sulfates contain iron, sulfur and oxygen.
How can iron be separated from its ores?
By smelting.
