Explanation:
Corrosion is when a pure metal is naturally converted to a more stable form example its oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide state this leads to decay of the material. It happens in the presence of water on the surface of a metal. Iron corrodes faster than most other transition metals to form iron oxide. Corrosion or rusting of iron is stimulated in the presence of CO2 and also in the presence of salt solution.
