Hydrochloric acid does a superior job of 'eating' iron.
Iron + sulphuric acid ----> iron sulphate + hydrogen
Sulfuric Acid Iron + Sulfuric Acid= Iron Sulfate + Hydrogen gas Fe + H2SO4 → FeSO4 + H2
Carbonic acid. H2CO3
name the acid which can cut the iron rod
Nitric acid is oxidizing acid. When it reacts with iron it forms a protective layer of iron oxide over it. So it does not react further.
Not exactly. Acid eats iron through a chemical reaction, but oxidation (rust) is something different.

No. Iron is a metallic element.

No, hydrochloric acid does not need air to react with iron. When hydrochloric acid reacts with iron, you will notice the reaction because of the bubbling.
when nitric acid and iron react together Iron Nitrate is formed and hydrogen gas
No, acid doesn't eat, it dissolves things.
the acid eats the meatl
As with most other metals when iron reacts with an acid the hydrogen in an acid basically steals electrons from the iron, forming hydrogen gas. The iron, now in the form of ions, becomes part of the corresponding iron salt.
