What is the formula for rust?
The formula for rust is Fe02
Chemical equation for rust?
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.
Does iron oxide cause rust?
Rust is caused when oxygen reacts with iron.Iron oxide does not cause rust, it is rust.
Is rust an element compound or mixture?
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.
Does hydrogen cause rust?
no, oxygen causes rust.
What is the formula for rust?
The formula for rust is Fe02
When metallic iron is left out in the weather it will react with water to form rust in a synthesis reaction Which of these is the chemical formula for rust?
Fe2O3 is the chemical formula for rust.
When metallic iron is left out in the weather it will react with water to form rust in a synthesis reaction. Which of these is the chemical formula for rust?
Fe2O3 is the chemical formula for rust.
Formula for rust?
Fe2O3X.H2O
What is the chemical formula for rust is?
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
Chemical formula for rust?
Rust is hydrated iron oxides: Fe2O3.nH2O + FeO(OH).
What is a substance that contains iron 3?
Common rust, which has the formula Fe2O3.
When rust is a compound with the formula which elements combine to form rust?
when certain elements (such as steel) are exposed to oxygen, they react, and rust is formed. However this reaction is very slow
Does rust or Fe2O3 have more atoms in the formula?
There are 2 atoms in a molecule of rust.
Can putting peanut butter on a nail pevent 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
What is the formula weight of rust?
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.
Can yellow be a color of rust?
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.
