Corrosion of any metal is a natural process. It results in the conversion of the metal into its chemically stable form that can be either oxides or hydroxides or sulphides.
Rusting is a type of Chemical Change. It results in the formation of Iron Oxide which is an entirely new substance. Chemical Reaction of Rusting is as follows:
Iron + Oxygen (from environment) + Water (Humidity) —> Iron Oxide (Rust)
Fe + O2 + H2O —> FeO and Fe2O3
