Question

discuss the conditions that would speed up rusting

Answer 1

Both water and oxygen are needed for rusting to occur. In the experiment below, the nail does not rust when air or water is not present. Remember that 21 per cent of the air is oxygen. Salt dissolved in water does not cause rusting, but it does speed it up, as does acid rain.✌️☺️
