Question

WHAT IS RUSTING OF IRON? AND IN WHAT CONDITIONS RUSTING OCCUR? (100 WORDS)

Answer 1

Answer:

Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron(III) oxide, which we see as rust. Iron and steel rust when they come into contact with water and oxygen – both are needed for rusting to occur.

This phenomenon takes place in the presence of moisture and air. So, the presence of air and water vapor in air are two necessary conditions for the rusting of iron.
