The rusting of the iron is a slow oxidation. In this slow oxidation matter links up with oxygen very slowly. There is no flame. THE HEAT THAT IS GIVEN OFF IS SO SLIGHT THAT IT CANNOT BE FELT.

One difference between rusting and burning?
During the burning process, a large amount of heat is released. On the other hand, very little amount of heat is released during the rusting process.
Can a flashlight produce heat?
Yes, flashlights produce heat.
How do radiations produce heat?
As your teacher..............
Can friction produce heat energy?
Yes, it does produce heat energy.
How do you use properly devices and equipment that produce heat?
The proper use for devices and equipment that produce heat require that they not be placed near other combustible materials. Combustible materials are things that can catch fire easily like paper or gasoline.
Do heaters produce heat or use heat?
Heaters use electricity to produce heat by resistance.
Does a magnet in use produce heat?
no
Why cannot you feel warm when you touch a rusty iron nail?
Although the process of rusting does release heat, the precess itself is very slow, so the rate at which the heat is released does not produce a noticeable change in temperature.
How are rusting the same as burning?
In some ways. Rusting is an oxidation reaction similar to fire and it does release heat, but it is so slow that the heat does not affect the reaction. In a fire the heat released goes helps sustain the reaction.

Applianceswhich use electricity to produce heat?
rice cooker
Is there any difference between rusting and combustion since both involve oxidation?
Differences:RUSTING :Rusting is a slow process.Little heat is released.Both air and moisture are necessary for rusting.COMBUSTION:Burning is fast oxidation.large amounts of heat are released.Only air is necessary for combustion.In other words, Rusting is much slower than combustion, and rusting in the strictest sense can occur only with iron or its alloys.
What accelerates the rusting process?
Wateroxygenhope this helped x
Can you sterilize a rusty nail?
Rusty nails are more likely to harbour virii and bacteria than bright clean ones, due to their roughened surfaces, but the rusting does not produce the micro-organisms. They can be sterilised by heat or disinfectant.
How is rusting a chemical change?
Iron combines with oxygen to produce iron oxide, which is rust.
Is rusting metal exothermic or endothermic?
It is an exothermic reaction. However, rusting of iron liberates only a small amount of heat as compared to other forms of metal corrosion.
What are three electrical appliances that use uninsulated wires to produce heat?
Toaster,
