It depends on the metal. If it is higher up the reactivity series then it will react with the metal. This is called oxidising. If it is very reactive, for example Lithium, it will react more fiercely and burn, giving of a bright light.

Which thing drop in water their weight increase doubled and doughted then their weight increase triple?
Cotton
What are electrons that get borrowed or stolen called?
Outer electrons are the electrons that are borrowed or stolen in a reaction. Because a non-metal has a negative oxidation number, it will borrow electrons from a metal to complete its outer shell. Metals have positive oxidation numbers and tend to lose electrons in reactions.
How much does a 1000 gal metal tank weight metal?
Depends, What kind of Metal is It? How thick is the metal.
How friction increases with weight?
yes, this is true when anyone increases our weight then no-one can't control oureself .( friction *weight).& increase the force .force is (torque*weight).hence friction increase with weight.
Is coitus can cause increase of weight?
no because it is healthy and might decrease weight
Does increase in hardness of a metal increases its weight?
metal is compressed by adding more, thus weight increase
Oxidation can be identified by an increase in oxidation number?
YES!
How does the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from chemical formula?
A pure metal has the oxidation state zero.
Rust is formed as a result of oxidation of which metal?
Rust is formed as a result of oxidation of iron (Fe) metal.
When a substance is undergoing oxidation does the oxidation number increase?
Yes!
Pb is a transition metal with only 1 oxidation state?
No, Pb is not a transition metal and it has 2 oxidation states
When is the oxidation state of a metal indicated in the name of a compound?
When the metal can exist in more than one oxidation state
When is the oxidation state of a metal indicated in the name of a compuond?
The oxidation state of a metal is indicated in the name of a compound if and when that metal has more than one oxidation states. The oxidation state is then indicated by a Roman numeral placed in parenthesis next to the metal (Stock System).
What creates rust?
the oxidation of metal
How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula?
The subscript of the second ion identifies the oxidation state of the transition metal
What is the most common oxidation state on the ions for alkali metal?
The oxidation state is 1.
What is the oxidation number of hydrogeon when it is combined with a metal?
Hydrogen is a non metal. Metals are electropositive than hydrogen. Therefore, hydrogen atoms in metal hydrides have oxidation number -1.
