Is being resistant to corrosion a physical or chemical change?
Resistance to corrosion is a chemical property.
Is the ability to corrode a chemical property?
chemical. Corrosion is a chemical reaction with the chemicals in the air.
What metals are most affected and least affected by metal corrosion What causes metal corrosion Hows is metal corrosion caused by water and how is it related to it?
Corrosion is a chemical reaction; corrosion of iron is the reaction with water in the presence of oxygen. Metals as Pt, Au, Ta, Rh, Ru, etc are less sensible to corrosion.
Is tendency to corrode intensive or extensive?
chemical. Corrosion is a chemical reaction with the chemicals in the air.
What is the chemical reaction for cyanide and silver?
The reaction is:AgNO3 + NaCN = AgCN + NaNO3
Is being resistant to corrosion a physical or chemical change?
Resistance to corrosion is a chemical property.
What chemical reaction produces both corrosion and iron oxide in the soil?
Corrosion is an oxidation reaction.
Is corrosion of aluminium metal a physical change or a chemical change?
It is a chemical change. Through corrosion, a chemical reaction has taken place.
When metal enters a chemical reaction what is it called?
The process called when metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction is called Corrosion. Electrochemical of oxidation of metals reacts with oxygen thus corrosion will occur on metals.
What is corrosive?
Corrosion is a chemical reaction in which molecules break down due to a chemical reaction with its surroundings. Most often, corrosion is the electro-chemical oxidation of a metal (such as iron "corroding" to form iron oxide, a.k.a. rust). Corrosion is deterioration of a substance, usually metal. Corrosion is slow and continuous eating away of metal by the surrounding.
Corrosion is the reaction of a metal with nitrogen in the air?
No corrosion is not a reaction of a metal with nitrogen in the air. Nitrogen in relatively innert and will not normally form chemical compounds. It is the Oxygen in the air that causes the corrosion.
Does a chemical reactions take place when marbles corrode?
Yes. Corrosion is a chemical reaction
Why is corrosiveness not a physical property?
Corrosion is a chemical reaction, therefore corrosiveness is a chemical property.
Corrosion is a physical property of metals?
No, corrosion is a chemical change of the metal involved.
Is tarnishing silver a chemical change?
Tarnish on silver is Silver Oxide, which is oxidised silver. This is indeed a chemical reaction.
Is the ability to corrode a chemical property?
chemical. Corrosion is a chemical reaction with the chemicals in the air.
Process in which metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction?
Corrosion or possibly rust.
