Very simply the blood contains iron, the iron is used to carry oxygen in the blood stream, oxidised iron is in effect rust. The blood turns red due to this. When the oxygen is removed from te blood stream the iron is no longer oxidised thus the blood turns blue, hence the blue blood returning to the heart.
What else can I help you with?
Why blood do not gets rusted even though it contain iron?
see the haemoglobin in the blood is a coordination complex of Fe3+(iron) and prophyrin .. ... when iron is found in the form of free radicle then it corrodes by oxidation and hence rusts .. iron in blood cant rust
What chemical reaction forms rust?
The chemical process is called rusting. It occurs when iron (or iron containing metals) reacts with oxygen and in the presence of water to form rust. It is a redox reaction; iron is oxidised and oxygen (gas) is reduced in this process.
Is rust stronger than iron?
It depends on what you mean by "heavier." Rust is less dense than iron. However, if you allow 1 gram of iron to rust completely, you will have more than 1 gram of rust. if we have equal volume of pure iron and rust (ferric oxide) then rust is lighter than iron.
Which element in iron rust?
There is 1 Iron atom and 2 oxogen atoms in Iron rust.
What is the compound needed to make iron rust?
Iron rusts when it reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide. The compound needed for iron to rust is iron oxide, which is commonly known as rust.
You get rust as the final product due to the reaction between iron and oxygen then why do not you get rust despite having both iron and oxygen in our blood?
because you need to have solid iron for it to rust
What element makes blood red?
There is a substance called iron in your blood. As you probably know, when iron is exposed to oxygen, it immediately starts to rust, which rust is red. Therefore, when the iron in your blood "rusts'' so to speak, it turns your blood red.
Why does blood smell like rust?
Rust is brown because of the metals they form on. It is caused by the iron oxide coating typically found on iron and steel. The colors are caused by the reaction of that coating with moisture and oxygen.
Is rust a physical or a chemical?
Rust would be a chemical change. Rust is often called oxidized iron because oxygen atoms combine with iron and turn red, just like the red blood cells in your blood stream. When the oxygen in your lungs meets the iron in your blood cells, or when the iron in a nail combines with oxygen in the air, you get that rusty red color.
WHAT DOES iron oxide smell like?
Iron oxide, also known as rust, does not have a noticeable smell.
Can graphite rackets rust?
No they will not get rust they are not iron to get rust. only iron get rust.
Why doesn't sprite rust iron?
it probably will over a long time, but it doesnt have much oxygen cause the water is diluted so it wont rust quickly
If iron rusts outside our body why doesn't it rust in our blood?
Iron in our blood is bound to proteins like hemoglobin, which protects it from rusting. The iron in our blood is in a different form (ferrous) compared to the iron that rusts (ferric). Additionally, our body has mechanisms to regulate iron levels and prevent oxidation.
Why iron does not rust?
Iron does rust by reacting with oxygen.
Why blood do not gets rusted even though it contain iron?

Which liquids rust faster?
Liquids do not rust, iron does, rust is Hydrated Iron (III) oxide, so the only substance which can rust iron is water
