Answer:

The layer of oil will prevent the entry of air in water. In the test tube C put some anhydrous calcium chloride and cork it. Anhydrous calcium chloride is drying agent. ... But the nail present in test tube A rusts because in test tube A the nail was exposed to both air and water.19-Jan-2018

Answer:

Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron(III) oxide, which we see as rust. Here is the word equation for the reaction:

iron + water + oxygen → hydrated iron(III) oxide

Iron and steel rust when they come into contact with water and oxygen. Both water and oxygen are needed for rusting to occur. In the experiment below, the nail does not rust when air (containing oxygen) or water is not present
