I will assume you are referring to a normal iron or steel nail. Such a nail will tend to oxidize (rust) whenever there is oxygen present. Submerging a nail in water will not deprive it from a source of oxygen.
Generally speaking, water is a solution of H2O and a wide variety of chemical compounds that are in solution with it. Among these, and prominently so, are the gasses that comprise the atmosphere, including oxygen. This oxygen will readily combine with the iron in the nail to form rust. In fact, other compounds within the water may cause the reaction to occur more or less quickly than it would in the air.
It is incredible how much gas is dissolved within water. Imagine a large pot of tap water on the stove. As it heats, bubbles begin to form on the sides, then collect together and rise to the surface. These bubbles are not bubbles of steam (gaseous water) like many people think, but dissolved air being forced out of the water. There are a lot of bubbles. Imagine how much air you would have if you could collect all the bubbles.
What else can I help you with?
Do skittles dissolve faster in hot or cold water?
They dissolve faster in hot water.
Do tomatoes spoil faster at room temperature or in a refrigerator?
they spoil faster at room temperature
Can hot water dissolve more salt then room temperature water?
yes, Because the warmer the water is the closer it is to gas form and so therefore the particles are moving at a faster rate and have more successful collisions with the salt particles making the salt dissolve faster. Colder water is closer to solid form and the particles move at a slower rate and have less successful collisions and therefore don't bump into salt particles as often making the salt dissolve at a slower rate. The warmer the water is the more activation energy there is to encourage the water to begin reacting with the salt and dissolve it.
Is the air you breathe out warmer or cooler than the air you breathe in?
We can say that air we breathe out is warmer, because if we breathe out on a mirror we can see droplets of water which means air is hotter compared to normal room temperature air because the room air condenses. Exhaled air is warmer than inhaled air because its the same room temperature air which we have taken in.
At which temperature will germs grow faster?
It grows faster in room temperature
Why does objecs move faster in hot water than in cold water?
Heat is the vibration of atoms, so atoms move faster. That's why you can clean things easier in hot water and why smells travel faster in a warmer room.
What is one reason that room temperature water boils faster than cold water?
Room temperature water boils faster than cold water because it is closer to the boiling point, requiring less energy to reach that point. Cold water must first be heated to room temperature before it can reach the boiling point, delaying the process.
Do molecules move faster in room temperature water?
Yes, molecules move faster in room temperature water compared to colder water. This is because warmer temperatures provide more thermal energy to the molecules, causing them to move and vibrate more rapidly.
Will mold grow faster on wheat bread in the fridge or in a room temperature?
Mold thrives in warmer temperatures; therefore the mold will grow faster at room temperature.
Why will hot water cool to room temperature faster in a colder environment?
Hot water will cool to room temperature faster in a colder environment because heat naturally moves from warmer objects to cooler objects. In a colder environment, there is a greater temperature difference between the hot water and the surroundings, causing heat to transfer more quickly and the water to cool down faster.
In a cooler would ice melt faster if left in the 32deg F water or drained to be exposed to room temp air?
The ice would melt faster if left in the 32°F water because water transfers heat more efficiently than air. The warmer water would melt the ice more quickly compared to the ice being exposed to room temperature air.
How do you make marble water which you use in nail art?
take an old dish and fill it with room temp water. Take some runny nail polish and drop it into the water. Then take a toothpick and draw a pattern into it. Dunk your nail in and take it out. xxx
If the ice cube is in the refigerator melt faster than an ice cube in room temperature?
No. Outside of the refrigerator is warmer than inside.
Does a Jolly Rancher dissolve faster in hot water or room temperature water?
A Jolly Rancher will dissolve faster in hot water compared to room temperature water. The higher temperature of the hot water increases the rate of the dissolving process, allowing the candy to break down more quickly.
Why does water always melt faster in room temperature water?
Because water has higher thermoconductivity.
Does boiling water warm up a room?
No, boiling water does not warm up a room. Boiling water only increases the humidity in the air, which may make the room feel slightly warmer due to the moisture, but it does not actually raise the room temperature.
Why will my nail polish not marble when dropped in water?
Either the water is too hot or too cold it needs to be room temperate
