The rusting of the iron is a slow oxidation. In this slow oxidation matter links up with oxygen very slowly. There is no flame. THE HEAT THAT IS GIVEN OFF IS SO SLIGHT THAT IT CANNOT BE FELT.

Rusting does not produce heat. Rusting is a slow chemical process in which iron reacts with oxygen to form iron oxide. The process does not generate significant amounts of heat.
