Question

a bucket made of plastic does not rust like a bucketmade up of iron. why?

Answer 1

This is because Iron has rusting property.

Iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of moisture to form Iron Oxide.

On the other hand, plastic does not react with oxygen & neither it has rusting​ property.

Hope it helps...........

Answer 2

because plastic is a non reactive material. it doesn't react with air and water when exposed to moisture and air.for rusting reaction with air and moisture is necessary.hence plastic bucket don't rust
