Why is the mass of a rusted nail greater than a nail before it it rusted?

The mass of a rusted nail is greater than that of an unrusted nail because rusting involves a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen in the presence of moisture, forming iron oxides (rust). During this process, oxygen from the air combines with the iron in the nail, effectively adding mass to the original nail. This increase in mass is a result of the incorporation of additional elements, which alters the overall weight of the nail.


What is a resin coated nail?

Explain why the mass of a rusted nail would be greater than the mass of the nail before it rusted Assume that all the rust is still attatched to the nail?

When a nail rusts, iron in the nail reacts with oxygen in the air to form iron oxide (rust), which has a greater mass than iron alone. As a result, the overall mass of the nail increases when it rusts because the mass of the iron in the nail combines with the mass of the oxygen in the air to form iron oxide.


When an iron nail rusts does its mass lose?

The iron nail, in wet conditions, will eventually rust completely away. * * * * * But if you collect all the rusted particles that fall away, then there will be an increase in mass.

Why is mass of a rusted nail would be greater than the mass of a rusted nail before it rusted.?

it is very simple actually because believe it or not rust has its own mass and after the nail rusts its mass increases


Why is the mass of a rusted nail greater than the mass of the nail before it rusted?

When a nail rusts, it undergoes a chemical reaction with oxygen in the air to form iron oxide (rust). This process adds additional mass to the nail in the form of the iron oxide. Therefore, the mass of the rusted nail is greater than the mass of the nail before it rusted.
