I would like to make two things clear.
-Copper is metal, so your question is like "What tastes better? Fruit or apple?"
- Rusting is restricted to Iron, another metal. The word "Corrosion" is used for all other metals, such as Copper. Corrosion and Rusting are pretty much the same, but they are used in different places.
If you wanted to know if Other Metals corrode faster than Copper, the answer would be that it depends on the metal in question.
Most metals, like Iron, Aluminum, Zinc,etc , are more reactive than Copper, so they corrode faster.
However, some metals, like Mercury, Silver, Platinum, Gold, etc, are less reactive, so they corrode slower than Copper.
I hope this answers your question.
zinc coated. the coating's protective layer quickly wears off, thus it rusts, iron will oxidize, and eventually rust, copper will just oxidize.
Actually the steel would rust first because it has no protective layer at all.
We can electroplate most of the metals. The metals used in electroplating are steel, zinc, iron, etc.
No. Copper is an element; meaning it is not made up of other metals.
If you are asking if there will be a chemical rection between the copper and steel, such as an explosion, no. Metals have a property called nobility, which measure a metals resistance to corrosion when in contact with another metal. The further apart they are on the nobility scale, the worse the corrosion. Copper and stainless steel are not very far apart. Copper and aluminum are a poor mix. The Galvanic Scale should be checked to see if certain metals in contact will accelerate corrosion.
Brass IS an alloy of copper and zinc Copper and zinc are pure metals (elements)
iron will rust faster because the hydrogen molecules combine with metalic molecules in the iron faster which causes the chemical reaction process to speed up sincerly, Jake from AZ 7th grade student
Steel and copper are both metals, but copper is the best conductor.
zinc/steel zinc/copper copper/steel
Copper's conductivity properties are based on its electronegativity. Generally, all metals must have low electronegativity and ionization energies. But all metals do not have the same electronegativity levels.

Not so good compared to metals such as copper and aluminium. Steel is an alloy where as copper is a pure metal
lots of metals scratch eaily including copper steel and iron :)
