What else can I help you with?
What happens to the mass when a substance when rusting happens?
When rusting occurs the mass of the substance increases since the rusting material reacts with the oxygen in air
What other common material is needed for rusting to happen?
oxygen and water
Why is rusting metal a chemical change?
because new material is formed
How are rusting the same as burning?
In some ways. Rusting is an oxidation reaction similar to fire and it does release heat, but it is so slow that the heat does not affect the reaction. In a fire the heat released goes helps sustain the reaction.
How is rusting and burning alike?
Both processes require Oxygen. Rusting (I think) is where metal reacts with oxygen and moisture and becomes oxidises. Burning or combustion, ALWAYS needs Oxygen to occur. Hope this helps!
Why are rusting and tarnishing examples of corrosion?
Rusting and tarnishing are examples of corrosion because they involve the chemical reaction of a material with its environment, leading to degradation of the material's surface. In rusting, iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide (rust), while tarnishing involves the reaction of metals with substances in the air, such as sulfur or carbon dioxide, leading to discoloration and degradation of the material's surface.
The process of combining iron with other metals to create a lighter non-rusting material was discovered by .?
henry
Who discovered non-rusting material?
Harry Brearley is often credited with discovering stainless steel in 1913, a material that is known for its resistance to rust and corrosion. While there isn't a specific "non-rusting material" discovered by a single individual, stainless steel is a widely used alloy that exhibits this property.
Why is stainless steel a a good material for manufacturing spoonsforksknives and kitchen utensils?
Because it is durable, non rusting and looks good.
Is a rusting bicycle a chemical or physical?
Rust (oxidation of metal) is a chemical change but it is also a physical change in the strength of the material.
What material are staples made of?
Staples are typically made of galvanized steel wire, which helps prevent rusting and corrosion. Some staples may also be made of stainless steel or aluminum depending on the application.
What is rusting and burning?
They are all oxidation. Burning is much faster than the other two and releases large quantities of heat. Rusting and tarnishing are much slower. Tarnishing typically shows a change in color and very little in the way of physical change. Rusting slowly eats away the material as it combines with the oxygen.
