"There is no note-able or useful reaction between the two. In knowing what Carbon Tetrachloride is, you should not need any further explanation."
I believe the person before me speaks only in respect to reactions between the two occurring Abiotically and perhaps even in the presence of oxygen.
However to counter this explanation CT is in fact heavily biodegraded by anaerobic organisms in which undergo reduction reactions. The reductive capabilities of iron is well known in which compounds as high as Fe(VI) have been found. Therefore the ability of iron to lend itself as an electron donor in redox reactions occurring with CT are under investigation now.
A new study suggests also that zero vallent iron could potentially destroy CT all together under the right circumstances and with the correct microorganisms.

oh yes, and this is a combination reaction

What is the correlation between carbon and energy?
Carbon combustion is an exothermic reaction.
What is the reaction between sulfuric acid and iron filings called?
chemical reaction.
What is the ionic equation for the reaction between carbon and water?
Carbon (C) doesn't react with water.
How water gas is prepared?
After a reaction between steam and hot carbon.
Is a piece of steel rusting a chemical reaction?
Yes. Rusting is a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen.
Iron can be produced by reacting iron oxide with carbon in a blast furnace. What type of reaction produces the iron?
We see a reduction reaction stripping the oxygen from iron in a blast furnace. Carbon in the form of coke is added to the furnace to facilitate the reaction. This is the primary chemical reaction that is used to produce iron on an industrial scale. In the reaction, iron oxide and carbon yield iron and carbon dioxide. It looks like this in its balanced form: 2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2 It is generally thought that carbon monoxide is the actual reducing agent that "steals" the oxygen from the iron to leave it in its elemental state, but what is posted above is the commonly published information.
Iron can be extracted from its ore using carbon. What type of reaction is this?
Iron can be extracted from its ore using carbon.what type of reaction is this
What element is oxidized in this reaction FeO CO--Fe CO2?
The material that is oxidized in the given reaction is Iron. Fe2O3 is iron oxide which can occur naturally as the mineral magnetite.
Iron ore is reduced to iron by a reaction with?
A reducing agent like Hydrogen(H2), Carbon(C), Carbon monoxide(CO) or Ammonia(NH3)
What is the reaction between iron metal and oxygen gas making solid iron oxide?
the reaction between iron metal and oxygen gas making solid iron oxide
What substance in the iron extraction process reduces iron oxide to iron?
It is carbon (in the form of coke) that is added to blast furnaces to reduce iron oxide and recover the iron. This is the usual explanation, though most believe that it is the action of carbon monoxide that is involved. The equation for the reaction between iron oxide and carbon that produces iron and carbon monoxide is this one:2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2
What is the reaction between copper oxide and carbon?
Well, im guessing that the reaction between the two will be >> copper oxide + carbon (arrow) carbon oxide + copper.
Why sponge iron catch fire when it contect with water?
Sponge iron contains carbon oxygen iron sulphur phosphorus when water is mixed it form reaction between oxygen and hydrogen it produce enomous heat that its starting to burn --
How does the reaction between wet iron filings air and salt happen to produce heat?
It is the oxidation of Iron to Iron oxide. An exothermic reaction.
What is the correlation between carbon and energy?
Carbon combustion is an exothermic reaction.
How is a metal made?
Metals are extracted from their ore through chemical reaction. Iron ore is an oxide of iron. The oxygen is removed from the ore by heating carbon with the ore to create molten iron and Carbon Dioxide.
What is the chemical reaction that is used to separate iron from its ore?
Heat-reduction with Carbon (coale)
