Explanation:
Rusting of iron is an example of a redox reaction. During rusting, iron combines with oxygen in the presence of water. This is an oxidation reaction where oxygen acts as an oxidising agent. Since oxygen also combines with the metal iron, this is a reduction reaction, where the metal iron acts as a reducing agent....

Answer:
for example, when the iron is exposed to air and moisture, rust formation takes place. rust is nothing but iron oxide; a new substance formed out of the reaction. the colour of the surface of the iron also changes.
