Oxidation: Does Iron Burn?
Searching for a fairly easy demonstration of how oxidation triggers rust formation? The demonstration allows high school chemists to witness the rusting of metals, as large and small objects are held into a flame while triggering the...
Curated OER
Corrosion & Rust
Young scholars examine how and when rust and corrosion occur. In this corrosion lesson students complete an experiment to see why metals rust.Â
Curated OER
What Will Rust?
Pupils discuss if they have ever seen anything that has rusted. They place metal objects into the cup and then add just enough water to cover the bottom of the container. They complete information on their data sheets and record as many...
Curated OER
Rusting as a Chemical Reaction
Learners participate in a hands-on activity in which they observe conditions that are most conducive to the rusting of iron. They set up an experiment with 8 different nails in different situations with one of them acting as a control....

Rusting and Metal Corrosion Part 1
In this chemistry worksheet, students answer 18 multiple choice questions on rusting and metal corrosion. They select the answers from the drop down box.
Curated OER
What Will Rust?
In this science worksheet, young scholars participate in an experiment about which items will rust and which ones will not. Students draw a picture of the items for 6 days and record the day, date, and time.

Color Reactions that Involve the Transfer of Electrons
Demonstrate the aging of materials as you assist the class in creating rust. Individuals demonstrate oxidation-reduction reactions that result in the rusting of materials, differentiate between materials that will and will not rust, and...
Curated OER
Rusting of Metals: Brown Village Roofs
Students define iron rust and its formation. They demonstrate how iron rusting can be prevented.

What's Eating Titanic?
Students, in groups, research the bio deterioration of the Titanic. They write a report focusing on the rusting of the Titanic and estimate the amount of time it will take for the Titanic's bow section to completely dissolve.
Curated OER
Rocks and Minerals
Learners are able to describe earth processes (e.g., rusting, weathering, erosion) that have affected selected physical features in students, neighborhoods. They are able to identify various earth structures (e.g., mountains, faults,...
Curated OER
Rusting and the Scientific Method
Students observe the oil can scene with the tin man from a clip from "The Wizard of Oz" and answer the question, "What can we learn about rust from this scene?". They take 2 tubes and 2 nails, adding 1 salt packet to 2 ml of distilled...
