What elements are needed to create rust?
All you need is water and iron the oxygen itself is not enough to create rust so you will need to use the water.
What causes iron changing to rust when it reacts with water?
Iron will begin to rust after exposure to water. The reaction that happens to cause rust is due to the iron oxidizing.
What does rusting need?
For something to rust you need oxygen and water. Rust specifically relates to iron (or iron products such as steel); it is iron oxide. When the metal comes into contact with oxygen disolved in water the iron in the metal reacts with the oxygen disolved in the water to form iron oxide - rust. This is why most metals are protected, to stop water and oxygen getting into contact with the metal and causing corrosion i.e. rust. Common methods of protection include galvanising, painting and coating.
What makes iron rust lead nitrogen carbon dioxide or water?
The cause of iron rust is oxygen and water.
Is there iron on moon?

What two substances are need to rust Iron?
ANSWER:oxygen and water
Will iron react with oxygen to produce rust?
Iron will react with water and oxygen to produce rust. Essentially water has oxygen atoms in it so as long as iron is in contact with water, it will rust.
How does tap water rust iron nails?
Water from the tap or drinknig fountain will rust iron,
Does iron rust in water?
The oxygen dissolved in the water combines with the iron to form iron oxide, or rust (Fe2O3H2O).
Which liquids rust faster?
Liquids do not rust, iron does, rust is Hydrated Iron (III) oxide, so the only substance which can rust iron is water
What makes iron rust lead nitrogen carbon dioxide or water?
The cause of iron rust is oxygen and water.
Do iron oxide dissolve in water?
No- if it did, water would wash away rust (rust is iron oxide)
