No. It is chemical change because that rust will never be a metal again. A chemical change is a change that is irreversible. ( Ex. Your rake ( that rust will never be a metal again.) A physical change is a change that still has the same compound. Ex. sand ( rocks, just littler.)

This is not an example of a physical change. Because oxidation takes place when something begins to rust, it is a chemical change.

17 What might cause a mineral deposit that had not been considered an ore become reclassified as an ore?

the classification of iron ore has been stepped up to 135 from the earlier 125 for wagon loading and to 130 from 120 for rake loading, entailing higher tariff for rail movement of the mineral. This will probably benefit some of the zonal railways such as South Eastern, East Coast, South-East Central and South Central than the others such as Northern or Eastern or Southern which do not handle any iron ore traffic.

How can you keep your wavy hair without it becoming fizzy?

Use something made for curls if you can. Gel has more shine than a mousse. Rub the product in your hands and comb it through your hair. As you start to dry your hair the moisture will make it's way to the ends because of gravity will start to make the curl pattern loosen on the ends. Squeeze excess moisture out the ends constantly using a dry part of towel. Your fingers can be used like a rake to lift the roots up so the air can penetrate farther for more volume. The product will start to create a crust over the hair. At this point do not squeeze ends anymore as you will only create frizz. The farther you go with the squeezing the hair for more curl will only create more frizz. If you go to far lightly spray with water and add a little more product and start over.
