Is a nail rusting reversible?
I'm not sure what you mean by "reversible" When iron rusts some of the iron it changed to iron oxide and thus part of the nail would be lost, but if discovered in time the rusting can be stopped and prevented from continuing.
Is rusting a chemical or physical property?
Rusting is a chemical property because it is irreversible. It changes the identity of the substance.
Is a rusting bicycle a chemica or physical change?
Chemical - It's the iron atoms reacting with the oxygen atoms in the air. For future reference, a chemical change is irreversible, whereas a physical change can be reversed, usually quite easily.
Is iron rust physical change or chemical change?
The process of iron rusting is a chemical change.
Why rusting of iron is chemical change?
Yes. Iron corrodes because oxygen ions attach to iron atoms to make iron oxide
Is rusting of iron a permanent or temporary change?
permanent- you are changing the chemicals in the iron when it rust
Is rusting an irreversible cause?
Rusting is an irreversible process.
Is a nail rusting reversible?

Is rusting of iron an irreversible or reversible change also explain?
There isn't really any such thing as an irreversible change, just changes that are so difficult they are unlikely to happen. It's a chemical change, because rust is a different substance from iron. If you put rust into a very hot furnace with carbon you can reduce it back to iron.
Which one is a chemical change rusting of iron or melting of iron?
rusting of iron
What kind of change iron to rust?
Iron rusting is a chemical change in which iron reacts with moist air to form fe2o3 commonly known as rust, a brown coloured coating.
Is creating iron sulfide an irreversible or reversible change?
irreversible change
Why nail rusting is an irreversible change?
Because you can't 'unrust' a nail
Why is rusting iron a chemical change what is classifications?
Because the rusting of iron is based on a chemical change, a reaction of oxydation.
Is metal rusting a physical change in matter?
The rusting of Iron is a chemical change as Iron reacts with Oxygen to form Iron Oxide [Rust]
Is a rusty nail reversible?
Surface rusting may be removed without weakening the metal nail too much. A badly rusted nail may not have enough metal left to be strong enough to still be useful. Therefore, irreversible change depends on the depth the rusting has reached.
Is rusting a chemical or physical property?
Rusting is a chemical property because it is irreversible. It changes the identity of the substance.
