Well, hello there! Astatine is a very rare and highly reactive element, so it can react with other elements in the environment. However, astatine is not known to rust like iron does. Instead, it tends to undergo radioactive decay relatively quickly. Just remember, every element has its own unique way of interacting with the world around it.

No, astatine does not rust. Astatine is a halogen element and is highly reactive, but it does not exhibit rusting behavior like iron or other metals.

Astatine is actually a metalloid. Therefore, it doesn't rust.
