Answer 2

Explanation:

Corrosion is defined as the chemical or electrochemical reaction between a material, usually a metal or alloy, and its environment that produces a deterioration of the material and its properties.

Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron(III) oxide, which we see as rust. Here is the word equation for the reaction: iron + water + oxygen → hydrated iron(III) oxide.
