Wire brush or steel wool.
Iron wool gains mass when it is burnt because the oxygen in the fire oxidizes and rusts the iron. The additional oxygen molecules on the iron wool in the form of rust increases the mass of the wool.
a smell of burnt hair comes, i think
1. Is clean wool hydrophobic or hydrophilic? Why?
It is generally not recommended to iron wool directly as it can damage the fabric. Instead, you can steam wool using a garment steamer to remove wrinkles and restore its shape. If needed, you can iron wool using a pressing cloth to protect the fabric.
Not burning, but a melting process.
iron oxide. the most common types are iron oxide (FeO), iron (II) oxide (Fe2O3), and iron(III) oxide (Fe3O4).
Steel wool is mainly steel and hence iron in the elemental state. However, some oxide will reside on the surface. This will be Iron III Oxide and some Iron II oxide. So traces of Iron II and Iron III ions will be present.
Yes.
in this demonstration experiments iron wool is heated in the presence of chlorine gas,and the vapour of bromine and iodine.Exothermic reaction occur,causing iron wool to glow.Iron wool rust and produced coloured vapours. 2fe+I2=2FeI2
To create the color burnt iron, mix black and dark brown paint together. Adjust the ratio of each color until you achieve the desired shade of burnt iron.
Because the surface area of iron wool is higher, the area exposed to acid is higher.
