As changing Iron to Rust is changing the actual chemical elements of the compound. It becomes Iron Oxide, or Iron with an Oxygen reaction having taken place so that the material is different.
rusting is oxidation, so it is definitely a chemical change
rust is a chemical change for iron
The reason that rust is considered a chemical change is because the "connections" or the bonds of atoms are changed in the process. When atoms "rearrange themselves" by changing the "connections" or bonds to allow different compounds to be formed, as is the case with the formation of rust, a chemical change has taken place.
Examples: Iron Rusting: CHEMICAL CHANGE The ABILITY for Iron to rust: Chemical PROPERTY Ice freezing: Physical CHANGE Water's ABILITY to evaporate: Physical PROPERTY
Oxygen reacts with the iron to make it rust.

When atoms "rearrange themselves" by changing the "connections" or bonds to allow different compounds to be formed, as is the case with the formation of rust, a chemical change has taken place. In iron, the iron atoms are arranged in a metallic crystalline matrix. When rust occurs, oxygen bonds to the iron atoms (which where not chemically bonded to anything before) to create an oxide of iron.
it rust.
Chemical change.
Its is chemical as
Yes, rust forming on an iron nail is a chemical change. It involves the oxidation of iron in the presence of oxygen and water to form iron oxide (rust), which has different chemical properties than the original iron.
A Chemical change as rust is iron oxide
Rusting iron is a chemical change because it involves a chemical reaction between iron, oxygen, and water to form iron oxide (rust). This process cannot be easily reversed by physical means.
