If its just iron then there is only one type of atom: iron atoms
There is 1 Iron atom and 2 oxogen atoms in Iron rust.
rusting of iron
How is iron gate is prevented from rusting
Paint or enamel can protect iron from rusting.
to protect iron (or other metals from rusting).
Try covering it in Zinc
Otherwise the iron will rust and eventually disintegrate and become unusable
This metal is zinc (Zn).

Yes. Iron corrodes because oxygen ions attach to iron atoms to make iron oxide
An atom of iron has 26 protons. An atom of oxygen has 8 protons. The atoms are significantly different.
There is 1 Iron atom and 2 oxogen atoms in Iron rust.
Zinc doesn't rust; zinc protect iron (and alloys) from rusting.
Zinc has a greater resistance to corrosion than iron does, however it will still eventually corrode away, leaving the iron surface exposed. Its main purpose is to prolong the resistance of iron by rusting instead of it.
