Best Answer

A nail made out of just iron will rust really fast if it is exposed to oxygen.

Nails available now, are galvanized nail which has a coating of copper metal on the surface of iron nail. This slows down process of rusting.

Exposing a iron nail to water and other acidic environment along with oxygen, can make a nail rust pretty fast.

Does saltwater make metal rust faster than unsalted water?

Salt water does make nails rust faster than non-salted water, because when salt is added to water, it will rust the top layer of the nail, and then make the nail basically shed its top layer. Then the salt will rust that layer, and this process continues until the whole nail is rusted. Normal water can only really rust the top layer, and can't get to the rest of the nail.
