What is the slow destruction of a metal through its reaction with oxygen in the air is called what?
The slow destruction of a metal through its reaction with oxygen in the air is called CORROSION
Why does metal rust faster in warm temperatures?
Metal is the only substance that can rust. Corrosion is a slow chemical change that occurs when a metal reacts with oxygen. The new substance is called a metal oxide. Iron reacts with oxygen to form iron oxide, also called rust. Aluminum reacts with oxygen to form aluminum oxide. A special alloy (including iron) can be used to coat a peice of metal and protect it from corrosion. The metal alloy will corrode quicker than the metal you are protecting.
What is the difference between rapid oxidation and slow oxidation?
Rapid oxidation is a fire. Its burning. The oxygen reacts with the substance very quickly in a fire. Slow oxidation is rusting. Rust happens very slowly but its the same chemical reaction.
Does iron react with cold water?
The iron is rusting because of its chemical bonding with oxygen, which creates ironoxide.
Is boiling of an egg is slow change?
yes it is a slow change since the egg reacts slowly to give boiled egg.

What type of chemical change is a slow combination of a substance with oxygen?
The slow combination of a substance with oxygen is typically referred to as oxidation. This chemical change usually involves the loss of electrons from the substance, leading to the formation of new compounds. Examples include rusting of iron and browning of fruits.

Ok i have a question about types of music Basically about metal i like the slow type of metal like Metallica the unforgiven or nothing else matter is there a specific name for the slow metal type?
The genre of music for the slow metal is basically called the slow metal.

What is rust?
­R­ust is the common name for a very common compound, iron oxide. Iron oxide, the chemical Fe2O3, is common because iron combines very readily with oxygen, so readily, in fact, that pure iron is only rarely found in nature.Iron (or steel) rusting is an example of corrosion, an electrochemical process involving an anode (a piece of metal that readily gives up electrons), an electrolyte (a liquid that helps electrons move) and a cathode (a piece of metal that readily accepts electrons). When a piece of metal corrodes, the electrolyte helps provide oxygen to the anode. As oxygen combines with the metal, electrons are liberated. When they flow through the electrolyte to the cathode, the metal of the anode is removed by the electrical flow or converted into metal cations in a form such as rust.
What is formed by a slow metal reaction with air and water?
A slow metal reaction with air and water will form a metal oxide. An example of this is iron oxide, better known as rust.
What are Sign and symptoms of oxygen toxicity?
Abnormally slow breathing is a symptom of oxygen toxicity
