    Only iron and steel can rust as rust is a form of iron oxide that forms when iron corrodes. The document describes an experiment to investigate the rusting process using iron nails in different solutions like water, salt water, vinegar and hydrogen peroxide to observe the effects of corrosion. It also discusses common methods to prevent rust in metals like using oils, coatings or storing in dry conditions.

    RUSTING NAILS

    Aim: To investigate the process of rusting in metals

    Only Iron and Steel rust. Rust is a form of a compound called Iron Oxide which forms when the Iron
    corrodes.

    Write the chemical reaction/chemical equation for the rusting of Iron.
