what is rusting and how can it be prevented. Provide chemical reactions if necessary
Answers
Answer:
Electrochemical corrosion of iron or steel, caused by the flow of electric current between different parts of the metal serving as anodes and cathodes of a cell. Rusting requires water and oxygen to occur, and is accelerated in the presence of acids and other electrolytes.
Whenever you get iron, water and oxygen together, you get rust. So the best way to prevent it is to keep them apart; that's what paint does, or the spray-on wax and oil coatings that the car protection companies sell. Keep your tools dry; wipe down your bike after a ride; keep the water away and it can't rust.
Answer:
When the metals are gradually eaten up by the action of air and moisture in atmosphere that is called Rusting.
Explanation:
It Can Be Prevented from following methods -
a) Applying Paint On Object.
b) Applying grease
c) Coating of Zinc (Galvanization)
Chemical Reaction For Rusting Of Iron -
