What else can I help you with?
What happens when transition metals react with the air?
Metals react with air in a form called oxidizing. This is caused because the oxygen molecules are reacting with the surface of the metal.
What gas present in the air can react with metals?
Oxygen
What happens when the alkali metals react with chlorine?
They metals are stored in oil to minimize the reactivity with air. When alkali metals react with air, they quickly tarnish after begin cut, they burn easily.
Why do metals go rusty?
They react (oxidise) with the oxygen in the air.
Why do metals lose their luster?
react with the air, generally oxygen
When metals react with the oxygen in air what it is called?
When metals react with the oxygen in the air, it is called oxidation. This process forms metal oxides on the surface of the metal, which can lead to rusting or tarnishing.
Are alkali metals and alkaline earth metals always found combined in nature?
They react easily. They combine with other elements to complete/fill their outer shell.
Why do metals often lose their luster?
react with the air, generally oxygen
Do metal react or do not react?
It depends on the specific metal and the conditions. Some metals, like alkali metals, are highly reactive and will react readily with air or water. Other metals, like gold or platinum, are much less reactive and do not readily react under normal conditions.
The gas in the air that reacts with metals easily is?
Nitrogen, is the most reactive gas that can be found abundantly in the air...
What important characteristic do the alkali metals ad alkaline earth metals have in common?
Thet are all highly reactive. They react with oxygen (air) , water and acids. The further down the Groups, they become more reactive, to the point of explosion. The metals react with oxygen to form the metal oxide (bases). The metals react with water to form metal hydroxides (alkalis) and hydrogen The metals react with acids to form chemical salts and hydrogen . In terms of reactivity, Francium , reacts the same as other Group (I) & (II) metals, but is not found in the 'open' lab. because it is also radio-active.
What are three metals that react with air and water in the atmosphere?
Three metals that react with air and water in the atmosphere are iron, aluminum, and magnesium. These metals can undergo corrosion when exposed to oxygen and moisture, leading to the formation of oxides or hydroxides on their surfaces.
