Create a detailed, colorful image of an iron nail in the process of oxidizing. The transformation from the metallic gray of the nail to the rich, reddish-brown of rust should be visible. Water droplets can be seen on the nail, indicating the presence of moisture, which is known to aid in the formation of rust. The rusted nail can be placed on a digital weighing scale, indicating a heavier weight. Please make sure there are no texts or words in the image.

Iron combines with oxygen and water from the air to form rust. If an iron nail were allowed to rust completely, one should find that the rust weighs:

I know the answer is the rust should way more than the nail it came from but can someone explain why please!

1:Which substance combines with iron in the presence of water to form rust?

oxygen
2:Which process is most likeWhich option best describes hydrolysis?carbonation
3:Which option best describes hydrolysis?water reacting chemically with minerals in rock
4:Which type of region would be most likely to support chemical weathering?
a tropical region that is hot and humid all year long

koa is right! :D

TYSM!! KOA I GOT 100%

also it says correct for me so you probably just clicked the wrong answer.

traveler then to make sure you get a good grade don't cheat, cheating like this you never know if your gonna get a good or bad grade. don't complain about it.

Rust is Fe2O3.xH2O

So rust is the combined weight of the iron nail you started with PLUS the weight of the oxygen added PLUS the weight of the water added.

yes

what are the AnSwErSsSsSs.... ;(

THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KOA IS 100% CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
