Rust is made when iron reacts with water and air. So, obviously the process is quicker with water as it doesnt have to use water vapour in the air.
to break it down:
rusting in a formula form is this
2Fe(s) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) ==> 2Fe2+(aq) + 4OH-(aq)
Fe2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) ==> Fe(OH)2(s)
Fe(OH)2(s) =O2=> Fe(OH)3(s)
Fe(OH)3(s) =dehydrates=> Fe2O3.nH2O(s)
basically what is happening is 2 iron is reacting with 2 water and 1 oxygen to form 2 iron ions and 4 hydroxide ions then they react and form iron(II)hydroxide which oxidizes to form iron(III)hydroxide whic dehydrated to form rust ( Fe2O3.nH2O) which is obviously solid. its quite a complicated process but the steps are quite easy to follow.
hope this helps =D
Damp, or wet weather will speed "oxidation", or rusting. Acid rain caused by pollution will further speed up the process.
rain and any type of precipitation
yes,rusting of iron can occur in distilled water.In fact it occur even very fast because ionic content in distilled water is very less.So,rusting of iron occur in distilled water.
it is rusting
Rusting is much slower than combustion, and rusting in the strictest sense can occur only with iron or its alloys.
Yes, rusting of iron occurs in distilled water. In fact, the rusting is faster since, the ionic content in distilled water is lesser.
Rusting is the corrosion of iron. A redox reaction will occur and the iron will be oxidised by the oxygen and water surrounding it or any other strong oxidants.

Rusting will occur in boiled water but at a very slow rate. This is mainly due to the fact that water which is boiled is said to be de-ionized.
The rate of rusting increases with the presence of salt.
The conditions necessary for rusting are water (or water vapour) and air, specifically Oxygen. If one condition is absent and the other is present then rusting would not occur but if both are present then rusting will occur
Rust will not occur where it is dry and humid

Differences:RUSTING :Rusting is a slow process.Little heat is released.Both air and moisture are necessary for rusting.COMBUSTION:Burning is fast oxidation.large amounts of heat are released.Only air is necessary for combustion.In other words, Rusting is much slower than combustion, and rusting in the strictest sense can occur only with iron or its alloys.
Chemical
Yes, rusting of iron occurs in distilled water. In fact, the rusting is faster since, the ionic content in distilled water is lesser.
The gas that is required to allow rusting to occur is Oxygen
