Answer:
Corrosion can occur when the substance is exposed to air or some chemicals. Rusting mainly occurs when a metal is exposed to air and moisture. Corrosion results in the formation of the oxides of metal or salts. Only iron oxide is formed when rusting takes place.

Corrosion is a chemical reaction in which metal reacts with atmospheric moisture or oxygen and forms mettalic oxide. Whereas rusting is the red or orange coating that forms on the surface of iron when exposed to air and moisture, consisting chiefly of ferric hydroxide and ferric oxide formed by oxidation.
