Rust is formed - it is caused by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture.

Rust is a form of corrosion that occurs when metals are oxidized. Oxidation occurs when oxygen comes into direct contact with metal parts for extended periods of time.

How would carbon monoxide cause death?

Carbon monoxide is exactly like carbon dioxide, except that it is missing an oxygen atom. Animal blood uses iron, the iron rusts making the blood red, to transport oxygen by combining the iron with the oxygen making iron oxide, or rust. The oxygen in rust can be easily taken from iron because oxygen combines with many things more easily than it does with iron. One such molecule is carbon monoxide. When the carbon monoxide is breathed in, it mixes with the blood, just like the other air that gets sucked in. When the carbon monoxide gets into the blood, the oxygen that is attached to the iron, the body attaches oxygen to iron to transport it and it uses it by combining it with carbon to dispose of waste, leaves the iron and goes to the carbon monoxide which makes carbon dioxide. So very simply carbon monoxide sucks the oxygen from the blood making the person suffocate, because they can no longer use the oxygen they breathe in.
