Go through the answer carefully, ill try my best to explain.

We will consider the iron table as pure iron here.

Iron requires o2 ( oxygen ) and h20 ( water ) for it to rust.

when it is kept out in the garden , after several days we will see a brownish layer on the iron , this is because it has been rusted.

we could have prevented this by various methods.

  • By painting the iron table
  • By applying oil over it
  • By Galvanisation

QUESTION :suppose your iron table is left in your garden for several days. what changes can you expect to see in its condition? How could these have been prevented in the first place?

ANSWER :

If an iron table is left in the open for several days ; it might catch rust as iron surface comes in contact with the moisture in air.

(equation for rust formation)

Iron + Oxygen (from environment) + Water (Humidity) —> Iron Oxide (Rust)

Fe + O2 + H2O —> FeO and Fe2O3

Prevention :

  • Paint It. Paint the bare metal with any durable acrylic paint.
  • Keep Moisture at Bay. Avoid contact with water or moisture.
  • Coat It With Oil. Use of oil or grease significantly reduces the chances of developing rust in iron. ...
  • (Other Considerations) Use stainless steel wherever and whenever possible. ...
  • Bacteria Warning.
