The iron oxidizes and turns to rust
What else can I help you with?
What is oxygen depleting substances?
An oxygen depleting substance is any material which consumes oxygen in the mixture which it occurs. In water pollution this is usually an organic material.
A combustion reaction occurs when a substance, usually containing carbon reacts with to produce energy in the form of heat and light?
oxygen
A combustion reaction occurs when a substance usually containing carbon reacts with what to produce energy in the form of heat and light?
oxygen
Why is aluminium is known as 'Al' and oxygen is known as 'O2'?
Aluminum occurs as individual aluminum atoms while oxygen normally occurs in the form of molecules each containing 2 oxygen atoms, hence the formula O2
How does Argon displace oxygen- and moisture-containing air?
Argon is denser than air, so when it is introduced into a space, it sinks and pushes the oxygen- and moisture-containing air upwards and out. This displacement process occurs because of the differences in molecular weights of the gases.
A combustion reaction occurs when a substance usually containing reacts with oxygen to produce energy in the form of heat and light.?
oxygen Wrong! its CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
What is the spongy material containing waterlogged mosses and plants called?
The spongy material containing waterlogged mosses and plants is called peat. It is formed over time as dead plant material accumulates in waterlogged environments with limited oxygen, leading to the partial decomposition of organic matter.
What occurs when a molecule with oxygen and produces heat?
The oxidation reaction is called combustion : the material may burn or explode.
What is The actual material that is consumed by a fire is?
The actual material that is consumed by a fire is usually a combination of fuel, oxygen, and heat. The fuel can be anything that can burn, such as wood, paper, or gas. When these elements come together in the right conditions, combustion occurs and the material is consumed by the fire.
What is it called when occurs when materials containing iron ae exposed to oxygen and water?
Oxidation is mostly what occurs and rust is the by product but,this can take decades and even centuries
What combines with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide?
S8 + 8 O2 ---> 8 SO2 ^ ^ ^ small numbers
Does every type of fuel have to have oxygen to burn?
Yes, fire needs three things- 1. Oxygen 2. combustible material 3.combustible material should be above its ignition temperature. If you want to burn without oxygen you have to use fission or fusion which occurs on extreme conditions.
