Iron is the only metal that can rust. The usual term for the destruction of a metal by oxidation is corrosion, and 'rust' or 'rusting' is the term for corrosion specific to iron and its compounds.
Rust is formed when oxygen combines with metal that is untreated with items that keep the metal looking young and new.
Gold is a metal that does not rust or corrode due to its inherent stability and resistance to oxidation.
Metal turns into rust when exposed to oxygen and moisture over time, a process known as oxidation. The oxygen in the air reacts with the metal's atoms to form a new compound, which appears as reddish-brown iron oxide, or rust. This process can be sped up by increasing the metal's exposure to water and oxygen.
rust
it doesnt
no because Ebonite is rubber. Rubber doesnt rust.
No, rust is the formation of a layer of a metal oxide on the surface of a metal.
Rust flakes away from metal because its a layer of loose material. The metal underneath is no longer protected and will begin to rust also.
Rust is the oxidation of the cast iron. Oxygen in the air combines with the base metal to create the rust. The rust protects the metal underneath. Cast iron is not "reacting" to rust. It is participating in FORMING the rust. ************** previous answer below *************** Very well as the rust actually protects the base metal
acid rain is what most commonly makes metal rust
yes orange jucie does rust metal.
it doesnt look pretty
Metal rust will not harm trees. There are a number of fungus rusts that can harm plants but they are not metal rusts.
rust=air+metal
Yes
The oxygen in the water reacts with the metal in the nail - forming metal oxide (rust)
