Principle

If you heat metals (in air) many of them undergo chemical changes. This experiment shows that different metals  undergo this change with different velocity rates. The rapidity and the rate of the reactions depends on the one hand of the type of metal  and on the other hand of the fragmentation of the metal pieces.
