Answer:

Corrosion: It is the process in which metals are slowly eaten up by the action of air moisture or chemicals. ...

ex- rusting of iron

Rancidity: When the substance containing oils and fats are exposed to air they get oxidised and become rancid due to which their smell, taste and colour change. This process is known as rancidity.

ex- rancidity is when a chips pack is exposed to atmospheric air which results in a change in taste and odor.
