Is letting a nail rust a physical change or a chemical change?
- A Physical change
- B Chemical change
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Rusting of a nail is a chemical change because it involves a chemical reaction between the iron in the nail and oxygen in the air, forming iron oxide or rust. This reaction results in the creation of a new substance, indicating a chemical change rather than just a change in form or appearance.
