rust. This is called rusting of iron. During the rusting of iron, iron metal combines with the oxygen (of air) in the presence of water (moisture) to form a compound ‘iron oxide’. This iron oxide is rust. The process of rusting can be represented by the following word equation : ...
The formation of rust takes place in the presence of water and oxygen on iron or some of its alloys. The reaction needs a considerable long time to develop. The formation of bonds between iron atoms and oxygen atoms makes iron oxides. The rusting of iron includes an upsurge in the oxidatio...

Hi I was wondering what would be the equation for the rusting of magnesium? I did an experiment where an iron nail was covered by a strip of magnesium and was put into diluted NaOCl (diluted sodium hypochlorite solution). Apparently the magnesium protects the iron from rusting and hence rust...
The reaction of rusting iron and the heat produced Homework Statement 4Fe+3O2=2Fe2O3 deltaH=-1.65 x 10^3kJ If there are 15.7 grams of iron and 7.99 grams of oxygen, how much heat will be produced? Homework Equations Since Iron is the limiting reagent do I use that to determine the...
