Copper doesn't rust like iron does, but it can undergo a process called oxidation, forming a patina or tarnish over time. If you want to prevent or slow down the development of this patina on copper surfaces, you can take several measures:
**Apply a Protective Coating:**
**Regular Cleaning:**
**Vinegar and Salt Solution:**
**Use Protective Oils:**
**Store in a Dry Environment:**
**Avoid Harsh Cleaning Agents:**
**Keep Away from Corrosive Materials:**
It's important to note that some people appreciate the natural patina that develops on copper over time, as it can add character to the material. If you prefer the shiny appearance, you can follow the preventive measures mentioned.
Copper wont rust, as rust is a proses only applicable to iron, how ever it will oxidises

Non rusting Copper corrodes not rust
Rusting is a reduction/oxidation reaction.
Copper oxidizes in air to form copper oxide, which has a green color. This is similar to the rusting that occurs when iron is exposed to oxygen.
Iron can be coated with copper, but it is 3 times the cost
2Cu+H2O+CO2+O2=Cu(OH)2.CuCo3
Its oxidized copper, basically the copper is "rusting"

Non rusting Copper corrodes not rust
It starts rusting when water keeps on touching it.:)
No, it can't.
Oxidation (rusting)
the dirty copper is actually the copper oxidizing, or rusting. Putting the copper in distilled water wont remove that rust.
no
To stop them rusting.

on a speed boat to stop it from you coat it with oil i thimk
