Chemical equation of rusting of iron
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 7 years, 3 months ago

When iron is exposed to water or air over a period of time, the iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of moisture to form a reddish-brown chemical compound, iron oxide. This is referred to as rust. So chemically, rust is hydrated iron(III) oxide or Fe2O3.nH2O. The chemical equation for the same is given by:

4Fe(OH)2 + O2 + xH2O → 2Fe2O3.(x+4)H2O
