What else can I help you with?
What was the significant reason that it took three months to stop the oil leak after the Deepwater Horizon explosion?
The well was located deep underwater, making it challenging to access and control. The blowout preventer, a safety device designed to stop the flow of oil in emergencies, failed to activate properly. This, combined with the complex nature of deep-sea drilling and the sheer volume of oil escaping, contributed to the prolonged effort to stop the leak.
Does rusting use or produce heat?
The rusting of the iron is a slow oxidation. In this slow oxidation matter links up with oxygen very slowly. There is no flame. THE HEAT THAT IS GIVEN OFF IS SO SLIGHT THAT IT CANNOT BE FELT.
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.
What type of energy causes rusting to occur?
Rusting occurs due to a chemical reaction between iron, oxygen in the air, and water, resulting in the formation of iron oxide. This reaction is driven by both chemical energy and environmental factors such as humidity and temperature.
Does Oil Stop Friction?
Yes, oil can be used to reduce friction between moving parts by providing a lubricating layer that helps the parts slide over each other more easily. The oil forms a barrier between the surfaces, preventing direct contact that can lead to friction and wear.
What is used on a speed boat engine to stop it from rusting?

How can iron be treated to stop it from rusting?
cover in oil, paint, grease or plastic. or galvanise it
How does oil stop rust?
Supposedly, oil forms a protective layer around the rusting metal, not allowing water and oxygen to get to it, but it has been proven to be highly ineffective.
Can antifreeze stop rusting?
No, it can't.
Do you need water to stop iron from rusting?
no
Why is paint not a suitable way to stop a chisel rusting?
Because the paint would get in the way and fall of when the chisel is in use. Wiping it down with oil is a better choice.
Why is it necessary to paint iron gates?
To stop them rusting.
Why nails go under rusting by acid?
Because if you put nails in acid in a acid factory,it will turn brown.To stop doing that put anti-rust oil on.

What is done to stop bridges from rusting?
Metal comes in contact with oxygen. That's the main reason that many mechanics wipe down their older metal tools with oil (WD-40). The coat of oil prevents air from contacting the metal. That's why they spend much more than $100,000 to paint a bridge. The coat of paint saves them. H2O, water, has the same effect on metal.
How do you stop iron nails from rusting?
The most important solution is to use greases.
Is there something cool about zinc?
It can stop steel from rusting. That's pretty cool. :)
