What kind of solution is rusted iron , Solid in gas or gas in solid???? Explain your answer.
Answers
Answer:
The main catalyst for the rusting process is water. Iron or steel structures might appear to be solid, but water molecules can penetrate the microscopic pits and cracks in any exposed metal.

Answer :-
When iron is in contact with water and oxygen it rusts. If salt is present,
for example in seawater or salt spray, the iron tends to rust more quickly, as
a result of electrochemical reactions. Iron metal is relatively unaffected by
pure water or by dry oxygen. As with other metals, like aluminum, a tightly
adhering oxide coating, a passivation layer, protects the bulk iron from
further oxidation. The conversion of the passivating ferrous oxide layer to
rust results from the combined action of two agents, usually oxygen and
water.
Other degrading solutions are sulfur dioxide in water and carbon dioxide in
water. Under these corrosive conditions, iron hydroxide species are
formed. Unlike ferrous oxides, the hydroxides do not adhere to the bulk
metal. As they form and flake off from the surface, fresh iron is exposed,
and the corrosion process continues until either all of the iron is consumed
or all of the oxygen, water, carbon dioxide, or sulfur dioxide in the system
are removed or consumed.
When iron rusts, the oxides take up more volume than the original metal;
this expansion can generate enormous forces, damaging structures made
with iron.
Rust solution do not form any type of sol or colloid. So, it is neither Solid in
gas, nor gas in solid. In, fact it is a chemical product obtained by corrosion
of iron.
