Titanium wont mix with Oxygen at room temperature, but once heated to a high enough temperature, it will react with Oxygen to form Titanium Dioxide - a white powder which is often used in the food industry or in paint. Titanium cant be melted in air, it has to be melted in a vacuum, or in an Argon atmosphere, as Argon is inert and wont react with the metal. If heated in air to sufficient temperature, it will burn very brightly, reacting with the nitrogen and oxygen.

What reaction will be formed if titanium oxide is mixed with HCL?

In theory TiOx + HCl yields H2O (water) and Titanium atoms or Titanium chelated with chlorine. In practice, Ti atoms react with water and will reform titanium oxide on the surface unless the solution is very acidic or there is a lack of free oxygen.

What happens when you add sulfuric acid to water?

when mixed sulfuric acid with water in the presence of oxygen nothing happens but the acid turned from concentrated acid will turn into diluted acid.


When titanium is burning can it be put out?

Titanium will burn if it is heated to a high enough temperature in air, You need a higher temperature than a match or candle flame, it also helps of the surface area to volume ratio is high, e.g. if you are setting fire to thin strips or swarf. The Oxygen and Nitrogen will then react with the Titanium which leaves behind a very hard Titanium Nitride or Titanium Oxide. It is difficult to extingush Titanium which is already on fire, CO2, water and foam will only feed it with more oxygen. It also burns with a very high temperature (sometimes it is used in fireworks). To melt titanium, you have to put it into a chamber where you can extract all of the Nitrogen and Oxygen (often back filling with some non-reactive Argon gas).


What happens when you mix lime water with oxygen?

Usually nothing happens when you add just oxygen to limewater. It is not water-soluble and will not cause a change to its equilibrium.

What is the common form of the element titanium?

(Fe,Mg,Mn,Ti)O3, Ilmenite {mostly FeTiO3} and Titanium Dioxide, TiO2, Rutile. By the formulas, Ilmenite includes Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Titanium and Oxygen. Rutile is simpler and composed of Titanium and Oxygen (Oxidized Titanium, Titanium rust!)
