What is a reddish flaky coating that forms when objects containing iron corrode?
The reddish flaky coating that forms when objects containing iron corrode is called rust. Rust is a result of the oxidation of iron when exposed to moisture and oxygen in the air.
What causes vinegar to rust a nail?
Vinegar contains acetic acid which acts as a weak electrolyte, providing a pathway for the flow of electricity between the iron in the nail and oxygen in the air. This reaction leads to the formation of iron oxide, commonly known as rust, on the surface of the nail.
Does carbon rust?
The term "rust" technically applies only to iron oxides and its variations, so the element carbon cannot rust.
Is vinegar soluble or insoluble to water?
The solvent is usually the one that is present in large amount. So, if you had 1 ml vinegar and 10 ml water, then water is the solvent. If you have 1 ml water and 10 ml vinegar, then vinegar is the solvent. But recall that vinegar itself has water as the solvent, so it gets confusing.
Does gold rust?
Gold can not rust. Rust is oxidation, and gold is inert to oxygen and even most acids.
What are the properties of vinegar?
some chemical properties of vinegar would be it is transparent flammable but not explosive reactive does not rust so those are just a few but i hope they help.
Does iron weigh less when you take off rust?
Yes it does. Believe it or not rust is one of the reasons why objects weight so much.
Will iron rust faster in vinegar or water?
Vinegar. Iron rusting is Fe------> Fe2+ + 2e- . A surface can not just acquire charge so there has to be a balancing reaction to consume the electrons. There are two main ones 2H2O + O2 + 4e- -----> 4OH- neutral and alkaline solutions - relatively slow. 2H+ + 2e- ------> H2 acidic solutions - extremely fast. So whenever acid is present and protons are produced, corrosion occurs faster due to the kinetics of electron consumption.
Why do objects in the desert not rust?
Objects in the desert do rust, just at a much slower rate. Water and high humidity speed up the oxidation process. Deserts have little moisture so the process is slower.

What makes metal rust?
steel will rust because of ether a water and salt mixture or a water and air mixture. for the water and salt the steel will just rust. steel will also rust in plain water. and the science for the water and air. when steel water and oxygen come all together in contact they create Iron Oxide. that is what rust is. by the way Iron Oxide is what gives mars it's red color.
Names of objects that rust?
Objects that rust are primarily made of iron and steel, which are metals that oxidize when exposed to oxygen and moisture. Common objects that rust include cars, nails, bridges, and outdoor furniture. Rust is a form of iron oxide that weakens the structural integrity of the metal over time.
Why are there so many orbiting objects in space?
These objects are the remains of cosmic experiences.
What are the chemical properties of vinegar?
some chemical properties of vinegar would be it is transparent flammable but not explosive reactive does not rust so those are just a few but i hope they help.
How is rust produced?
Rust is iron oxide. So when iron oxidizes you get rust. So iron and steel (iron and carbon) are prone to this happening while metal like aluminum well not rust.
What is the best way to remove rust from the metal runners in a freezer please?
You want to avoid using chemicals in the freezer so to clean the metal runners, you can use a combination of baking soda and vinegar with an old toothbrush.
