Yes, it is possible; supplemetary the chloride ion is corrosive.


What factors of salt water make iron rust?

Two conditions: - dissolved oxygen - the ion Cl-


What are the conditions necessary for a chemical change in iron to form rust?

Dissolved Oxygen and liquid water- rust is hydrated iron oxide though you could get some rust with another oxidiser like ferric ions (a type of iron ion) which breaks up water to add oxygen to corrode the iron. Extra components to help rust are salts and temperature and a supply of oxygen.


Is iron oxide rust?

Eventually, it should. Iron "rusts" to Iron-Oxide in the presence of Oxygen. Isopropyl Alcohol does have an -OH group, so it has Oxygen. The speed of the reaction depends on the Reduced version of Isopropyl Alcohol and the affinity of the Fe ion for Oxygen. There's also the possibility that H20 would develop as Iron reacts with the Oxygen, since Alcohols could deprotonate the remaining Propane ion so it could form Propene. H20 could, in turn, could also rust the iron.


Can graphite rackets rust?

No they will not get rust they are not iron to get rust. only iron get rust.


Why does iron rust faster in salt water than freshwater?

Because the ion chloride (Cl-) from salt is very corrosive.


What is the role of oxygen in the corrosion of steel?

role of oxygen in steel corrosion is to provide the oxide ion to react with iron to form iron III oxide which is rust in nature


What is formed when iron combines with oxygen in the air?

Iron reacting with oxygen produces rust, Fe2O3 (Iron (III) oxide) or FeO2 (Iron (II) oxide) depending on the composition of the iron.


Why iron nails rust in tapwater?

One water molecule is formed from 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. Rust is a chemical compound of iron and oxygen. When the nail is put in the water, a chemical reaction begins. If you have 1 iron atom and 1 water molecule, then the water molecule comes apart into one molecule of hydrogen, witch forms the bubbles and one ion(a highly reactive atom) of oxygen. Then the oxygen ion reacts with the iron atom and forms a rust molecule.


Why iron does not rust?

Iron does rust by reacting with oxygen.


Do only iron compounds rust?

Iron compounds do not rust. Iron and its alloys can rust. Although other metals can corrode it is usually only called rust when it is iron that is corroding.


Which liquids rust faster?

Liquids do not rust, iron does, rust is Hydrated Iron (III) oxide, so the only substance which can rust iron is water
