It’s an excellent way to teach chemistry students about activation energy and exothermic reactions, says Yilei Wu, a ...

What if a simple ring could detect an iron deficiency ... Then, she tried the experiment on her own forehead, and a grayish mark began to form. One might mistake it for rust or simple wear and tear.

In a groundbreaking discovery that challenges long-held assumptions, researchers have uncovered evidence suggesting that the accidental use of iron oxide in ancient copper smelting processes may have ...

Like pipes, statues and nails, the moon can rust. Such rusting has occurred despite a seeming lack of necessary components — but all signs of blame point to the Earth. A new study posits that the ...

A new investigation into rust on the Moon implicates Earth as the culprit. Oxygen leaking out of Earth is likely responsible for the transformation of iron to hematite (Fe 2 O 3) at the lunar poles.

A stream of charged particles that blows from Earth (foreground) to the Moon could account for the rust compounds found in lunar soils. Most of the time, both Earth and the Moon are bathed in a stream ...

The makers and handcrafters at Master Sergeich test whether cola really removes rust and reveal the truth. Miranda Lambert's breaking news has fans saying the same thing Crime sparks state of ...

An iron-air battery that stores and releases energy through a reversible rusting process has become the first of its kind to connect with a public electricity grid. On 30 July, the Dutch start-up Ore ...
