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 is iron rusting and paper burning different?
It all has to do with rate of oxidisation; what we call burning is a very rapid chemical reaction, the faster it is, the more heat it releases in a certain amount of time. by baby girl23 and friend
Is a rusting car a redox reaction?
Yes, rusting in a car involves a redox reaction where iron in the metal reacts with oxygen in the air to form iron oxide (rust). In this reaction, iron is oxidized from its elemental state to iron oxide, while oxygen is reduced to form water.
Is a rusting bike an abiotic factor?
Yes. Rust forms due to a chemical reaction of the metal with water and oxygen. Water and oxygen are non-living and therefore are considered abiotic factors.
Which must be present for a piece of iron to rust?
Rusting is the reaction of iron with oxygen in the presence of water.
How are rusting the same as burning?
In some ways. Rusting is an oxidation reaction similar to fire and it does release heat, but it is so slow that the heat does not affect the reaction. In a fire the heat released goes helps sustain the reaction.

How is rusting and burning alike?
Both processes require Oxygen. Rusting (I think) is where metal reacts with oxygen and moisture and becomes oxidises. Burning or combustion, ALWAYS needs Oxygen to occur. Hope this helps!
One difference between rusting and burning?
Rusting is a slow chemical reaction between iron and oxygen, forming iron oxide (rust), while burning is a rapid chemical reaction between a substance and oxygen, releasing heat and usually producing light and smoke. Rusting occurs at a much slower pace compared to burning.
Which gas is used when iron rusted?
Rusting is an oxidation - reaction with oxygen.
Why rusting of iron considered as a combustion process?
Because it's the "burning" of iron in oxygen. It's just slow.
Does rusting of iron is a reaction of iron and nitrogen?
Oxidation (rusting) of iron metal is the reaction of 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.
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
How is burning iron a similar reaction to burning?
Because burning is a a reaction with oxygen, an oxydation.
