▶⏩ Corrosion:-)

↪➡ Corrosion is the process in which metals are eaten up gradually by the action of air, moisture or a chemical ( such as an acid) on their surface.

→ Corrosion is mainly caused by the oxidation of metals by the oxygen of air.

=> For example :-)
→ During the corrosion of iron(or rusting of iron), iron metals is oxidised by the oxygen of air in the presence of water (moisture) to form hydrated iron (lll) oxide.✔✔.

▶⏩ Rancidity:-)

↪➡ The condition produced by aerial oxidation of fats and oils in foods marked by unpleasant smell and taste is called Rancidity.

→ It is also due to the oxidation of substances in air.

=> For example:-)
→ The potato chips are made in oil. On keeping exposed for a long time, these potato chips start giving unpleasant smell and taste. They turn rancid.✔✔.
