What else can I help you with?
Is Iron a nonreactive metal?
NO! It reacts with air to form iron oxide (AKA rust) and water to form iron hydroxide (AKA rust)
Which elements combines with iron to form rust?
Iron combines with oxygen in the presence of water to form rust (iron oxide).
What element is the most common that erodes to form rust?
Iron is the most common element that erodes to form rust, which is composed of iron oxide. When iron comes into contact with water and oxygen, a chemical reaction occurs that causes the iron to corrode and form rust.
What is the most common magnetic element that corrodes to form rust?
The most common magnetic element that corrodes to form rust is iron. When aligned, atoms of iron will possess a magnetic field that will lead to interaction with other magnetic, ferrous materials. Iron will oxidize to form rust.
Does iron oxide cause rust?
Yes, iron oxide is the chemical compound that forms when iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of moisture, leading to rust. Rust is a common form of corrosion that weakens and deteriorates iron and steel.
What is the compound needed to make iron rust?
Iron rusts when it reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide. The compound needed for iron to rust is iron oxide, which is commonly known as rust.
What substance is produced when iron reacts to oxygen?
iron oxide or dioxide is form or its commonly known as rust
What amkes iron rust?
I'm sure you meant to ask what makes iron rust. Rusting is a different way of saying oxidation. Oxygen reacts with iron to form iron oxide, or rust.
What element does iron react with in damp air?
Iron reacts with oxygen in air to for rust.
When iron reacts with oxygen to form rust each iron does what?
When iron reactions with oxygen to form rust, the iron atoms, Fe reacts with the oxygen atoms, O2 to create iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3.4Fe + 3O2 -----> 2Fe2O3Or2Fe + 3/2O2 -----> Fe2O3
When a nail rust iron from the nail combines with oxygen from the air to form what?
They combine to form rust. You might be able to guess from what's combining that "rust" is apparently an iron oxide.
Does sodium hydroxide rust the iron?
No. as rust is caused by the oxidation process of: O2+2H2O+4e = 4OH in sodium hydroxide the hydroxide is already present making it harder to form and therefore making rust harder to form. Sodium hydroxide is a rust inhibitor.
