If you mean for an experiment, try iron or magnesium. Iron will rust, magnesium will do something, I forgot what it was though. :)

Does tap water or salt water cause metals to rust faster and why?

Most likely salt water. The salt accelerates the rate of corrosion, plus it has the oxygen needed for the metal to rust. Tap water has the oxygen too but with the salt also, it would cause the metal to rust more rapidly.


Which metalswill be affected by salt water?

Iron and iron alloys can be corroded by salt solutions.


How does salt affect the rusting away of metals?

Salt can accelerate the rusting process of metals by increasing the conductivity of water, which helps the flow of electrons that leads to oxidation. The presence of salt also lowers the electrical resistance of water, making it easier for the metal to corrode. Essentially, salt acts as a catalyst for the corrosion of metals.


Why does tap water rust faster than salt water?

It doesnt. salt water usually rusts metals faster because of the mixture of salt, water and oxygen that rusts the metal, but tap water has less oxygen and no salt.


How is the quantity of salt affected when the salt is reclaimed from a salt-and-water solution?
