Iron rust is a mixture of Fe2O3.xH2O, Fe(OH)3 and FeO(OH); rust is formed in humid air. Rusting is a process of oxydation.

∙ 14y agorusting of iron is oxidation or something i guess

∙ 13y agorust is made when oxygen and water are added to a metal, salt also speeds up the process

∙ 11y agoIf this is what you mean - Oxidisation
Fe (Iron) + O (Oxygen) = FeO (Iron Oxide (rust))
