When metals burn in oxygen what products are formed?
When metals burn in oxygen, they form metal oxides. For example, when iron burns in oxygen, it forms iron oxide (rust). The specific metal oxide formed depends on the metal and the conditions of the reaction.
If you put a match in pure oxygen will the oxygen burn?
No, oxygen itself does not burn. Oxygen only supports and accelerates combustion when there is a fuel source present. So, while the match may burn more intensely in pure oxygen, the oxygen itself does not burn.
Will burnt Iron weigh more or less than unburnt Iron?
Burnt iron (iron oxide) will weigh more than unburnt iron because the process of burning involves combining iron with oxygen from the air to form iron oxide. The additional weight comes from the oxygen atoms that have bonded with the iron atoms during the burning process.
What transition metal rusts when exposed to oxygen?
Iron is the transition metal that rusts when exposed to oxygen, forming iron oxide.
What is the Word Equation For Iron?
FeC
What does oxygen do iron or steel?
it increases the mass when you burn it
Why is oxygen blown through the molten iron?
to burn coke that will burn the raw material
What gases causes iron to rust and candles to burn?
Oxygen is the gas that causes iron to rust. When iron is in contact with oxygen and water, it forms iron oxide (rust) as a result of a chemical reaction. Candles burn due to the combustion of wax, which releases carbon dioxide and water vapor.
When metals burn in oxygen what products are formed?
When metals burn in oxygen, they form metal oxides. For example, when iron burns in oxygen, it forms iron oxide (rust). The specific metal oxide formed depends on the metal and the conditions of the reaction.
Why do iron and magnisium burn more in oxygen than in air?
Iron and magnesium burn in air under the right circumstances becasue they combine rapidly with oxygen. (Fire is just the rapid combination of oxygen or another oxidizer, wiht a fuel.) Oxygen is only about 20% of air. If you provide pure, 100%, oxygen under the same circumstances, there is more oxygen to combine with the iron or magnesium, so they can burn faster.
Why sponge iron catch fire when it contect with water?
Sponge iron contains carbon oxygen iron sulphur phosphorus when water is mixed it form reaction between oxygen and hydrogen it produce enomous heat that its starting to burn --
Can a iron burn?
Yes iron can burn
Can a compound of iron oxide can be made by heating iron in oxygen?
Yes. This can be seen especially well in the case of steel wool, which can burn in air when heated.
Iron melt at about 1700 degree Celsius. why all carbon in it does not burn out at that temperature?
Carbon can essentially dissolve in molten iron. Carbon only leaves iron if it is exposed to oxygen to make carbon dioxide. This happens in the process of converting iron to steel where the carbon content is controlled to desirable levels.If we heat the carbon in absence of oxygen, it will not be oxidized to carbon bi oxide. When you heat the Iron it melts. Through carbon is ready to get burn, it can not burn in the absence of oxygen and so it remains as carbon only. All around the carbon atoms, there are Iron atoms and as such it can not be converted to carbon bi oxide. It means if heated carbon is surrounded by iron atoms, it will not be oxidized and after cooling, it will remain as carbon only.
Why do wood burn faster than iron?
because iron doesn't burn...it melts.
Where does the oxygen come from that is reacting with a piece of burning iron?
When oxygen is reacting with iron it generally comes from the air, but it can also come from oxygen disolved into water. There are other ways it can occur but I do not know these. But unless it is in a vacuum, the oxygen comes from the surrounding environment like air or water.
If you put a match in pure oxygen will the oxygen burn?
No, oxygen itself does not burn. Oxygen only supports and accelerates combustion when there is a fuel source present. So, while the match may burn more intensely in pure oxygen, the oxygen itself does not burn.
