The formula for rust is Fe02
Fe2 + 3O2 --> Fe2O3
2Fe(s) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) ==> 2Fe2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq) This is the equation for rust. ---- NOT EXACTLY Rust is a solid, it doesn't exist as ions in solution. Also, in rust, iron is in the +3 oxidation state. There are three common forms of rust. Rust formed under water is Fe(OH)3. Rust formed in humid air is FeO(OH). Only when rust has completely dehydrated will you see it as Fe2O3. The reaction for the rust that we see around us most often is: 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) + 2H2O(l) --> 4FeO(OH)(s) FeO(OH) is also formed naturally, and is the mineral called goethite.
Rust is caused when oxygen reacts with iron.Iron oxide does not cause rust, it is rust.
Actually, Rust is a mixture, of two compounds = Hydrated Iron(III) oxide [Fe2O3.nH2O] and Hydrated Iron(III) oxide-hydroxide [FeO(OH).nH2O] . Both the compounds are red giving colour to Rust.
no, oxygen causes rust.
Fe2O3 is the chemical formula for rust.
Fe2O3 is the chemical formula for rust.
Fe2O3X.H2O
Red rust Iron(III) oxide, is written Fe2O3Black rust, Iron(II) oxide, is FeOA contributor, below, offers that rust can be hydrated with some number of waters,ANS2:the formula for rust is Fe2O3.xH2Owhere x is a variable as we do not know that with what amount of water will iron react and will form rust
Rust is hydrated iron oxides: Fe2O3.nH2O + FeO(OH).
Fe2 + 3O2 --> Fe2O3
Common rust, which has the formula Fe2O3.
when certain elements (such as steel) are exposed to oxygen, they react, and rust is formed. However this reaction is very slow
There are 2 atoms in a molecule of rust.
Yes, Peanut butter has a natural anti rust formula in it to prevent rust, erosion, and even fills the holes of the heart. haha, jk
Rust has a chemical formula of Fe2O3. Ferric oxide has a molar mass of 159.69 grams per mol and a density of 5.26 grams per cubic centimeter.
Highly hydrated rust will be yellow. If the rust forms under water, the iron oxide contains bound water, so that in effect the rust is ferric hydroxide Fe(OH)3 . The formula is not exact. If you heat yellow iron oxide it is converted into red iron oxide, Fe2O3. This formula is not exact either, because some Fe(II) will be present.
