Unbalanced equation for rusting?

The balanced chemical equation when rust occurs is given as.2Fe(s) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) 2Fe2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq)Fe2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) Fe(OH)2(s)Fe(OH)2(s) =O2=> Fe(OH)3(s)Fe(OH)3(s) =dehydrates=> Fe2O3.nH2O(s) or rustThe chemical formula for rust is Fe2O3.nH2O.The overall chemical equation for the formation of rust isIron + water + oxygen rust


What is a chemical equation for rust?

2Fe(s) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) ==> 2Fe2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq)---------------------------------------Iron rust is hydrated Fe2O3 and Fe(OH).Fe(OH)3.4Fe + 3O2 = 2Fe2O3.


What is the chemical equation of S?

S is the chemical symbol of sulfur.


Chemical equation for rust?

2Fe(s) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) ==> 2Fe2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq) This is the equation for rust. ---- NOT EXACTLY Rust is a solid, it doesn't exist as ions in solution. Also, in rust, iron is in the +3 oxidation state. There are three common forms of rust. Rust formed under water is Fe(OH)3. Rust formed in humid air is FeO(OH). Only when rust has completely dehydrated will you see it as Fe2O3. The reaction for the rust that we see around us most often is: 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) + 2H2O(l) --> 4FeO(OH)(s) FeO(OH) is also formed naturally, and is the mineral called goethite.

What is the chemical equation for Br?

Br- is chemical symbol for a bromide anion. It is not an 'equation', it can be a part of a chemical equation, like in this precipitation reaction (example) Ag+(aq) + Br-(aq) --> AgBr(s) .


Where is the new substance located in a chemical equation?

The new substance(s) formed during a chemical reaction will appear to the right of the "yield" arrow in an equation. This/these is/are the product(s) of the reaction.
