Rust is the name reserved for what happens to iron and steel. When something similar happens to other metals it's called something else, oxidation, corrosion.
Stainless steels, zirconium, titanium, gold, platinum metals, other metals; glass, ceramics, wood, textiles, etc.
Only metals containing iron rust. Other metals, over time, corrode.
Sea water can rust nails or other metals.
Stainless steel, aluminum, and copper are metals that do not rust or degrade easily outdoors. These metals have natural properties that provide corrosion resistance, making them suitable for outdoor use in various environments.
Other metals can corrode, but the term rust is usually just refers to the product of corroding iron or iron alloys.
Lead oxidizes.noNope, cant rust as lead like copper /brass /bronze /muntz metals are non ferrous thus NO rusting is possible
The group of metals that attract a magnet and can rust is commonly referred to as ferrous metals. This category includes iron and its alloys, such as steel, which are magnetic and prone to oxidation when exposed to moisture and oxygen, resulting in rust. Non-ferrous metals, on the other hand, do not have these properties.
Explosure to moist air will form rust on metals.
Iron compounds do not rust. Iron and its alloys can rust. Although other metals can corrode it is usually only called rust when it is iron that is corroding.
Iron and steel are the metals that rust the fastest due to their high reactivity with oxygen in the presence of water. Other metals like aluminum can also rust quickly depending on the conditions, but iron and steel are generally more prone to corrosion.
No not really, metals rust. However, rust can be considered metal decomposition (kind of).
Any metal that is an element, like copper, iron, manganese, etc will rust (or oxidize, if you want to get technical).
