Rust is not an element but compounds of iron. The brown oxide of iron is ferrous oxide and the black oxide of iron is ferric oxide.
Oxygen
Actually there are several iron oxides, iron(II)oxide, iron(III)oxide and iron(II,III)oxide, and iron(III)oxide comes in four so-called 'phases'.All of these are compounds of iron with oxygen.
This is an oxidation reaction.
Iron oxide is a compound, but I would add that a chemist would refer to it as either ferrous oxide or ferric oxide, depending upon the proportion of iron to oxygen.
Iron oxide is rust. It is formed when the element iron reacts with oxygen in the water or air.
No. It is not. Iron is an element. Oxygen is an element. Iron Oxide is a compound.
Oxygen
NO!!!! It is a COMPOUND. It is made up of two elements. viz. Iron(Fe) and oxygen(O).
Carbon iron oxide - oxygen = carbon dioxide

iron oxide(rust) - Fe2O3
It's an oxidation reaction forming iron oxide (rust). Basically: iron + oxygen = iron oxide Iron, (Fe) is an element and react easily with the element Oxygen (O2) the resultant material is a compound known as rust or iron oxide, (FeO2) this proces is known as oxidization.

Compounds that form when an element such as aluminum or iron combines chemically with oxygen are called oxides. Oxide minerals are used to make products such as abrasives, toothpaste, cement, and paint.
