Can hydrogen peroxide get rid of rust?
When I put my rusted ligature (instrument piece) into Hydrogen peroxide it bubbled a lot and made it easier to remove the rust but it does not fully get the rust off on its own.
Does iron oxide cause rust?
Rust is caused when oxygen reacts with iron.Iron oxide does not cause rust, it is rust.
Why does hydrogen peroxide make rust orange?
An easy explanation of the above is : Hydrogen Peroxide contains oxygen therefore oxygen makes some kinds of fruits rust. When the inner part of the fruit has contact with oxygen it rusts.
How does rust forn on a nail that is in hydrogen peroxide?
gah get spell check:) peroxide H2O2 and it breaks down in the presence of light and some catalysts and it releases oxygen and hyrdogen and the oxygen reacts with the iron to make your rust
Is rust dangerous or can cause damage?
yes, because it can make something sharp and someone could get hurt
Can calcium magnesium acetate cause rust?
No only oxygen can cause rust. However CMA can make water a stronger acid and thereby make the corrosion process faster, as water is breaks into hydrogen and oxygen. these reacts with Iron and makes the rust. So CMA cannot form rust but speeds up the process
Does hydrogen help iron to rust?
Hydrogen gas is not involved in rusting.
Can hydrogen peroxide get rid of rust?
When I put my rusted ligature (instrument piece) into Hydrogen peroxide it bubbled a lot and made it easier to remove the rust but it does not fully get the rust off on its own.
Do car magnets cause rust?
Car magnets doesn't cause rust.
Can hydrogen peroxide rust stainless steel?
yes
Will different liquids affect the process of rust?
This is an extremely broad question. Technically 'rust' only occurs when a metal (typically iron) reacts with oxygen, however colloquially any chemical decay of a metal due to exposure to the elements or age is typically referred to as rust. Water affects the process by providing oxygen for the metal to rust with. Many other elements with oxygen and hydrogen in them cause similar reactions. Traditionally, a thin layer of oil is applied to metal when there is a fear of rust. Because oil and water don't really mix, the layer of oil prevents the water from coming into contact with the metal. There are many other liquids (hydrogen peroxide, for example) that can affect the process of rust, but it would be impossible to name them all. In general, water and many chemicals with hydrogen and oxygen present can cause rust. It's worth noting that fires cause rust because a typical biproduct of fire is water vapor, and the high temperatures accelerate the rate of the reaction. Hope this helps.
Does iron oxide cause rust?
Rust is caused when oxygen reacts with iron.Iron oxide does not cause rust, it is rust.
Does calcium hydroxide cause rust?
No. Calcium Hydroxide does not cause rust, however it can cause corrosion due to its high pH.
What is the difference between rust resistant and rust proof?
Something that is rust resistant will not rust easily; minor exposure to water will not cause it to rust. Something that is rust proof will not rust.
What cleaner is best for rust removal?
any acid based cleaner works well on rust however acid will also remove unoxidized iron and can cause hydrogen brittleness which in most cases will not be a problem but if it is you can use a 50/50 water and cyanide mixture to safely remove rust, CAUTION CYANIDE IS POISONOUS
What household chemicals cause steel wool to rust?
Bleach or chlorox bleach will help cause rust. Vinegar can also help cause rust. If you combine both it rust even quicker. Vinegar is also said to also be a cleaning agent for rust. It will be fun for you to do an experiment to verify both theories.
Does vegetable oil cause rust?
Vegetable oil does not cause rust. It is slightly acidic, its similar to a lubricant and it can prevent rust.
