the tune of Iron from about -60 to -190 kcal/mol, substantial amount of heat gnerated so the reaction is exothermic.

When iron rusts is it an endothermic or exothermic reaction?

It is an endothermic reaction because in endothermic reaction energy is added .In that reaction nitrogen does not react with oxygen without energy added in the shape current . In that reaction 3000`current is applieded to take reaction b/w nitrogen and oxygen


Is rusting metal exothermic or endothermic?

Rusting metal is an exothermic process because it releases heat as it occurs. This process involves the reaction of iron with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide (rust), and this reaction releases energy in the form of heat.


How is rusting in an enothermic reaction applied in everyday life?

Rusting is an eXothermic reaction, not an eNDothermic.


Is rusting of iron an endothermic process?

According to the definition of an exo/endo-thermic compound, all metallic oxides (rusty metals) are exothemic compounds, since their forming reaction starting from elemenets (Me + O2) is called rusting as an example of an exothermic reaction.


Does rusting of iron is a reaction of iron and nitrogen?

Oxidation (rusting) of iron metal is the reaction of iron and oxygen


A reaction that gives out energy?

An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy in the form of heat or light. This type of reaction usually feels warm to the touch and may involve combustion or decomposition of reactants. Examples include burning wood, rusting iron, and neutralization reactions.


To show the rusting of iron?

Rusting of iron is an oxidation reaction in the presence of water.


Is rusting of iron harmful or useful?

Rusting is an oxidation reaction.


Is rusting an example of burning?

Fire is the oxidation of carbon in the form of wood or coal and is an exothermic reaction (releases heat). Rusting is the oxidation of iron which is also an exothermic reaction releasing small amounts of heat but to be considered burning it must be an intense heat. The reaction between oxygen and iron is too slow and releases its heat over too long a period of time but that is an interesting way to think about the reaction. That is similar to asking if H2O is a rusty H2 molecule.


How does wrought iron rust?

Rusting of iron is a chemical reaction of oxydation (reaction with oxygen).


Is rusting of iron is an combination reaction or something else?

Rusting of iron is a redox reaction where iron reacts with oxygen and water to form iron oxide (rust). It is not a combination reaction since it involves the transfer of electrons between iron and oxygen.


What is caused by chemical reaction iron and oxygen?

The formation of iron oxides is caused by chemical reaction of iron and oxygen. Note, it is not rusting; rusting also requires the presence of water.
