What else can I help you with?
What air that gives rust to metals?
Explosure to moist air will form rust on metals.
What element does iron react with in damp air?
Iron reacts with oxygen in air to for rust.
Is Iron a nonreactive metal?
NO! It reacts with air to form iron oxide (AKA rust) and water to form iron hydroxide (AKA rust)
When a nail rust iron from the nail combines with oxygen from the air to form what?
They combine to form rust. You might be able to guess from what's combining that "rust" is apparently an iron oxide.
