Explain why when iron is exposed to air and moisture it rust but when aluminum is exposed to moisture and air it does not rust

Answers

Answered by vibharamdhav

Answer:

Iron, as well as iron alloys, rusts because of a chemical reaction known as oxidation. When iron is exposed to moisture or oxygen, oxidation occurs. Both oxygen and moisture are catalysts for rusting. When iron is exposed to air or moisture, oxidation will convert it into iron oxide.
