How does painting a metal surface stop it from corroding?
Usually you have to stop it corroding FIRST, then paint it to protect it.
How does oil protect iron from corroding?
KEEPS OXYGEN FROM COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE IRON.
Is corroding metal a chemical change?
Yes. When metal rusts the iron is changed into iron oxide. This type of change is called a redox reaction. The iron is oxidized, meaning is has lost electrons.
How is sacrificial metal used in oil rigs?
Zinc or Aluminium anodes are often used to stop iron struts on oil rigs from corroding due to salt water.

Corrosion of bicycle frame?
That'd be a chemical change, as steel/iron turns into iron oxide. Usually called rusting, or corroding.
Do only iron compounds rust?
Iron compounds do not rust. Iron and its alloys can rust. Although other metals can corrode it is usually only called rust when it is iron that is corroding.
Can metals that don't have iron develop rust?
Other metals can corrode, but the term rust is usually just refers to the product of corroding iron or iron alloys.
How does galvanised iron corrode?
Slowly, because the zinc galvanizing coating must corrode away almost completely before the iron can begin corroding.
Is metal corroding chemical change?
Yes. When metal rusts the iron is changed into iron oxide. This type of change is called a redox reaction. The iron is oxidized, meaning is has lost electrons.
Does salt disolve objects?
Salt doesn't dissolve objects but the ion chloride has a corroding action on iron and alloys.
