Answer:
When a metal reacts with oxygen, a metal oxide forms. The general equation for this reaction is: metal + oxygen → metal oxide. Rust is a form of iron oxide and it forms slowly when iron is exposed to air.

Answer:
Explanation:
Reactions of metals with water
When a metal reacts with water, a metal hydroxide and hydrogen are formed.
For example:
Sodium reacts vigorously with water.
sodium + water ➞ sodium hydroxide + hydrogen
2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) ➞ 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Reaction of metals with oxygen
Many metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides.The change from shiny to dull is called tarnishing.
For example:
Potassium burns with a lilac flame when heated in air.
potassium + oxygen ➞ potassium oxide
4K(s) + O2(g) ➞ 2K2O(s)
