There are various things that happen when oxygen combines with steel. The electrons are set free and this is what will cause rust which will make the entire structure weak.

yes steel will burn. try lighting steel wool on fire. solid steel doesnt burn because there isn't enough surface area

Does photosynthesis take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere?
No, Cellular Respiration returns carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere: Photosynthesis: Carbon Dioxide + Water -> Light Energy -> Sugar + Oxygen Cellular Respiration: Sugar + Oxygen -> C.R. -> Carbon Dioxide + Water
Why carbon can not enter the atmosphere?
Carbon can enter the atmosphere. It moves in and out of the atmosphere through the earth's regular carbon cycle.What it can not do is enter as pure carbon. Carbon is a solid in it's natural state and solids fall out of our atmosphere. Carbon must mix with a gas, such as oxygen, to create another gas, carbon dioxide, to enter the atmosphere.
How does carbon enter plants from the atmosphere?
As carbon dioxide. Plants convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water to glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen in the chemical process of photosynthesis.
How do plants and animals mantain the level of oxygen in the atmosphere?
Animals breathe in oxygen and let out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
How does cellular respiration effect carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
It turns in into oxygen
What happens to the atmosphere during cellular respiration?
oxygen is added to the atmosphere when plants take in carbon dioxide during cellular respiration
How is the balance mainted between the volume of carbon dioxide and oxygen in atmosphere?
The balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide is maintained in the atmosphere by the oxygen released by plant during photosynthesis and carbon dioxide released by human ,animal's etc in the atmosphere
Which organism gets its carbon from carbon dioxide?
Green plants take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and using energy from the sun separate the carbon from the oxygen. They release the oxygen to the atmosphere, and use the carbon.
How is the oxygen in the atmosphere replaced?
Through oxygen cycle. Humans and animals take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen. This ways the oxygen is circulated in the atmosphere.
What does respiration remove from the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide is being released. As you breathe in you inhale fresh oxygen, but as you breathe out your body releases carbon dioxide.
How has the atmosphere changed?
Carbon dioxide is increasing in the atmosphere, and oxygen is decreasing.
Can Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen be found in air?
Oxygen makes up roughly 20% of the atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide makes up 0.035% of the atmosphere.
How did lots of oxygen then get into the atmosphere?
Plants They take in carbon dioxide Then keep the carbon to grow and give out oxygen
What percent of the Martian atmosphere is oxygen?
Mars' atmosphere contains 0.13% oxygen. Over 95% of the atmosphere on Mars is carbon dioxide.
How oxygen is returned to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are absorbed by plants. A plant separates the oxygen from the carbon, uses the carbon for growth material and releases the oxygen into the atmosphere.
What element does carbon combine with in the atmosphere?
Oxygen. Carbon burns to form carbon dioxide, incomplete combustion with insifficient oxygen will produce carbon monoxide.
What are oxygen and carbon dioxide?
gases thet are in our atmosphere
