What compound is formed when iron nitrogen and oxygen are added together?

Iron oxide is formed when iron, nitrogen, and oxygen are added together. It is a chemical compound that is commonly known as rust.


What is occurring during rusting iron?

Rusting needs iron, water and oxygen. Rusting is an example of an oxidation reaction. this is when oxygen is added to the substance. Rust flakes off the iron exposing more metal to corrode. Rusting happens faster when the water added is salty or acid rain. when cars rust they are usually scrapped because it makes iron weaker. iron + oxygen + water = (should be an arrow but dis shud doo) Hydrated iron (lll) oxide. hpe it was useful :)


When iron and oxygen combine to form rust what is are the reactants?

The reactants in the formation of rust are iron (Fe) and oxygen (O2). When iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water or moisture, it forms iron oxide, commonly known as rust.

Will iron lose weight while rusting?

No. In fact, iron will gain weight because of the added weight of the oxygen.


When oxygen is blown into pure iron to remove impurities Wont it react with Iron itself to give iron oxide?

Oxygen is not blown into pure iron, it is blown into molten iron ore (many impurities) and coke has been added to the mix as well. the coke reacts with the impurities and the oxygen to purify the iron ore.


What kind of change happens when iron rusts?

Oxidation. Water, oxygen, and metal.


Why does burnt iron weigh more than unburnt iron?

When iron is burnt, it combines with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust). This increase in weight is due to the added oxygen atoms bonded to the iron atoms, making the total weight of the iron and oxygen combined greater than that of the unburnt iron alone.
