Chemical reactions that take place in living organisms are collectively known as the organism's?
Metabolism is the set of all chemical process that take place in the body. The processes allow all life sustaining functions needed in the cells of living organisms.
Is the reaction of iron with oxygen to form iron oxides a physical or chemical change?
Reaction of iron with oxygen to form iron oxide is an example for a chemical change as iron is getting oxidized to its oxide . The process is known as corrosion and the product is commonly known as rust.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about chemical changes, physical changes, and rust itself.iron rusts is a chemical change because you cant cahnge the way it is now.
