What causes metal to rust fastest?

Answer 1

the cells expand

- water/moisture

- salty sea water - speeds up

- household detergents

- oxygen

- high tempertature

There are NO cells in any metal whatsoever. Sea water is called sea water because it is salty, and high temperatures don't help at all. What kind of a moron thinks this? Go back to physical science!

Answer 2

Something that will make metal rust really fast is dencher cleaner and water, it rusts immediently. Also it takes a few days but, meat tenderizer will make metal rust because it has enzymes in it and enzymes are catalyst. I hope this helps you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Answer 3

The word rust tends to be restricted to the corrosion of Iron.

For other metals such as bronze and copper or aluminum, corrosion is the term used.

To the Q. Nitric acid will make copper corrode quickly. But many simple acids react with copper to corrode it.

Answer 4

Rust is the oxidation of iron to produce iron oxide (mostly Fe2O3). This process requires the presence of water and oxygen. All of the agents used (water, vinegar, soda, bleach) contain water. The bleach, however, is a much stronger oxidizing agent than the others, so rust will be faster. Bleach is essentially a solution of hypochlorite (HClO-).

Answer 5

One of the most common liquids is water and that causes rust. salt water does also:)

Answer 6

the main liquid that makes metal rust is water fo-sho

Answer 7

I did a science experiment on this and found (out of using water, vinegar, bleach, and diet 7up soda) that bleach causes the most rust and the fastest.
