Is magnesium is a chemical reaction?
Magnesium is a chemical element, a solid metal not a reaction.
Is corroding metal a chemical change?
Yes. When metal rusts the iron is changed into iron oxide. This type of change is called a redox reaction. The iron is oxidized, meaning is has lost electrons.
What process destroys metal by chemical reaction?
rust
Is metal chair-rusts physical or chemical change?
The rusting of a metal chair is a chemical change. The iron is undergoing oxidation as it combines with oxygen to form iron oxide.
Does a non metal give away electrons in a chemical reaction?
no
What happens to a bromine atom when it enters a chemical reaction with an active metal?
A bromide is formed.
What is the process called when a metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction?
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.
How is a rusting a nail a chemical change?
Rust is a chemical reaction called oxide. When a nail rust, the chemical change is related to the reaction of the metal and oxygen.
The gradual wearing away of a metal due to a chemical reaction is called what?
Corrosion. This often involves a reaction with oxygen.
Is putting acid and metal together a chemical reaction or combustion?
chemical reaction
Is magnesium is a chemical reaction?
Magnesium is a chemical element, a solid metal not a reaction.
What will a metal become in a chemical reaction?
any type of metal
Is tarnishing of metal a physical or chemical change?
Yes. It is a reaction between the metal and oxygen.
Are a frozen pipe or a rusted metal bike a chemical energy?
A frozen pipe is a physical change, as it is just water changing state from liquid to solid (ice). However, a rusted metal bike is a chemical reaction as it is caused by the metal reacting with the oxygen in the air, in what is called an oxidation reaction.
Is corroding metal a chemical change?
Yes. When metal rusts the iron is changed into iron oxide. This type of change is called a redox reaction. The iron is oxidized, meaning is has lost electrons.
What are some examples of chemical activity?
when a metal can replace another metal in a chemical reaction - it is a chemically active metal
What is a reaction in a chemical reaction in science?
it is something that changes like rust on metal
