Why is O2 necessary for rusting?

Chemistry

The main culprit is actually water, although bleach will also cause iron to rust, as will vinegar or other acids. Rust is the combination of Iron and Oxygen (O2) .Without Oxygen rust can never form. Chemically rust is Fe2 O3 .

O2 isn't necessary for rusting, but some source of oxygen is required. Rust is just another name for iron oxide, and without oxygen there can't be oxide.

Hope this helps,

Order the theories from oldest to most recent.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The following are the order of point from oldest to most recent

1. Atoms are tiny indivisible particles that make up all mater.

it is Postulate of Dalton's atomic theory. this theory was put forward in 1803

2.  Negatively charged electrons are embedded in a mass of positive charge.

In 1897 J.J Thomson discovered that atom consist of tiny negatively charged particles called electrons that are uniformly spread in +vely charged matrix this model called as plum pudding model.

3. Atoms consist of mostly empty space with a dense nucleus of positive charge.

While doing experiment on gold foil Rutherford presented a model in 1909 and stated that atom consist mostly empty space with dense nucleus.

4. Electrons occupy specific energy levels surrounding a positively charged nucleus.

Niels Bohr in 1913 put forward a model to explain atomic orbitals/energy level. This is a postulate of Bohr model.

5. Electrons move about a positively charged nucleus in clouds that are defined by probabilities.

In 1926 Erwin Schrödinger explain the wave function of electrons and its probability.

NUMBERS 6-8 URGENT PLEASE
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

9g of water contains : 9g/18 g/mol = 0.5 mole of water

1) 2 moles of hydrogen yields 2 moles of water

x moles of hydrogen yields 0.5 moles of water

x= 2 × 0.5/2 = 0.5 moles of hydrogen

Mass of hydrogen = 0.5 moles × 2 = 1 g of hydrogen

2) Number of moles of Al(OH)3 = 468 g/ 78 g/mol = 6 moles

2 moles of Al(OH)3 yields 3 moles of H2O

6 moles of Al(OH)3 yields 6 × 3/2 = 9 moles of H20

Mass of water =9 moles × 18 g/mol = 162 g of water

3) There are 13 oxygen atoms in the compound.

Mass of each oxygen atom = 16 g

Total mass of oxygen atoms = 13 × 16 = 208 g

Practice Explaining Heat Flow
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The right choice is "burning gas → pan → water → eggs"

Explanation:

Heat will flow from the body of higher temperature to the cooler body.

So, heat will firstly flow from burning gas to pan by conduction then to the water in contact with pan then to the egg present inside the water.

<u>So, the right choice is :</u>

"burning gas → pan → water → eggs"

Which statement best describes John Dalton’s use of creativity in his work?
asambeis [7]
<span>The scientist thought that the atom was the smallest particle in the universe is John Dalton. He established the atomic theory which consists of five; elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms, atoms of different element have different sizes, mass and physic – chemical properties, atoms cannot be divided further, destroyed or created, atoms can combine to form compounds and in chemical reaction, atoms can be combined, separated or rearranged</span>
