What else can I help you with?
How long does it take a coin to rust in salt water?
It depends on what metals the coin is made from!
Are metals all magnetic?
NOT all metals are magnetic
Does tap water or salt water cause metals to rust faster and why?
Most likely salt water. The salt accelerates the rate of corrosion, plus it has the oxygen needed for the metal to rust. Tap water has the oxygen too but with the salt also, it would cause the metal to rust more rapidly.
14 properties of metals?
1. All metals lose electrons however gold can form aurides. 2. All metals conduct electricity. 3. All metals do metallic bonding. 4. All metals have free electrons. 5. All metals react with fluorine. 6. No metals are gases at RTP, there're either liquid (caesium, gallium, mercury) or solid. 7. Nearly all metals are shiney silver in colour except copper, gold and osmium. 8. All metals are at least fairly good conductors of heat. 9. All metals form atleast 1 compound soluble in water. 10. All metals have atleast 1 full s subshell This is way to broad of a question to possibly get 14, there are many different groups of metals the s block metals which are split into alkali and alkali earth metals, transition metals, poor metals, rare earth metals which are split into lanthanoids and actinoids.
What are inert metals?
I did not know it either but inert means it cannot react, so my best guess is that and inert electrode is one that will not react with the ons in the electrolyte. So it wont react with oxygen and form CO2. We would not have to replace it.
Does all metals decompose?
No not really, metals rust. However, rust can be considered metal decomposition (kind of).
Do all pure metals rust?
No, not all metals rust. Rust itself is iron oxide and comes about when iron metal oxidises; therefore only Iron rusts.
What air that gives rust to metals?
Explosure to moist air will form rust on metals.
What causes different metals to rust?
Light and water and Oxygen. Metals which easily form oxides, especially when wet, will rust.
What metals do not rust or degrade outdoors?
Stainless steel, aluminum, and copper are metals that do not rust or degrade easily outdoors. These metals have natural properties that provide corrosion resistance, making them suitable for outdoor use in various environments.
Do peoples body rust?
No. Iron or metals containing iron rust, but not bodies.
What types of metals do not rust?
I think that srtonger metals like gold do not rust. I also think that some metals, when combined with others do not rust, like when you combine iron with aluminum, it doesn't rust. By definition, the only metals that rust are iron and iron alloys. Even so, not all iron alloys rust. Stainless steel (an iron alloy) does not rust. Gold doesn't rust, in that it doesn't combine with oxygen from the atmosphere to form a surface of gold oxide. But it can tarnish, that is, for a thin transparent darker layer to form on the surface. however steel will rust. to protect a metal from rusting you must galvanzie it or paint. for example to galvanzie iron you must use a metal higher in the electrochemical series like zinc. this will protect it from rusting.
What metals dont rust?
Metals such as gold, platinum, and silver are highly resistant to rusting because they do not easily react with oxygen in the air. Stainless steel, which contains chromium, is also known for its rust-resistant properties.
What is the name given to a group of metals that attract a magnet and will rust?
The group of metals that attract a magnet and can rust is commonly referred to as ferrous metals. This category includes iron and its alloys, such as steel, which are magnetic and prone to oxidation when exposed to moisture and oxygen, resulting in rust. Non-ferrous metals, on the other hand, do not have these properties.
Can metals that don't have iron develop rust?
Other metals can corrode, but the term rust is usually just refers to the product of corroding iron or iron alloys.
Why do metals rust more in saltwater?
Yes, saltwater is corrosive for Iron and will cause Iron to rust.
What water can make the nail rust the fastest?
Sea water can rust nails or other metals.
