Answer 2

Rust is a general term for a series of iron oxides, usually red oxides, formed by the reaction of iron IronIron is a metallic chemical element with the symbol Fe and atomic number 26. Iron is a group 8 and period 4 element and is therefore classified as a transition metal. Iron and iron alloys are by far the most common metals and the most common ferromagnetic materials in everyday use...

in the presence of water or air moisture. Several forms of rust are distinguishable visually and by spectroscopy SpectroscopySpectroscopy was originally the study of the interaction between radiation and matter as a function of wavelength . In fact, historically, spectroscopy referred to the use of visible light dispersed according to its wavelength, e.g. by a prism. Later the concept was expanded greatly to comprise...

(FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3). Rusting is the common term for corrosion CorrosionCorrosion is the disintegration of a material into its constituent atoms due to chemical reactions with its surroundings. In the most common use of the word, this means a loss of electrons of metals reacting with water and oxygen. Weakening of iron due to oxidation of the iron atoms is a...

of iron and its alloys, such as steel SteelSteel is an alloy consisting mostly of iron, with a carbon content between 0.2% and 2.1% by weight, depending on the grade. Carbon is the most cost-effective alloying material for iron, but various other alloying elements are used such as manganese, chromium, vanadium, and tungsten...

. Other metals undergo equivalent corrosion, but the resulting oxides are not commonly called rust. Given sufficient time, oxygen, and water, any iron mass eventually converts entirely to rust and disintegrates.

Answer 3

on bikes, on the side of metal pipes...anywhere with copper, iron, aluminum, etc. is found

Answer 4

in any damp area near metal
