It speeds up the oxidation process, or in other words, it speeds up how fast oxygen molecules attach themselves to the iron to create iron oxide (rust).
Acid speeds up the rusting process of iron by providing hydrogen ions that react with iron to form iron ions, which then combine with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust). The presence of acid accelerates the formation of rust on the iron nail by increasing the rate of oxidation.
If the water is oxygenated, the nail will react because rust is Iron Oxide and for Rust to form you need not only Water but Oxygen as well.
bleach makes iron rust because it has the ability to change any colored objects. so if you leave any iron in a cup of bleach you will see the iron starting to rust.
Yes, because there is an unexpected colour change.
The acid in the drink makes the nail rust. The nail would rust if you put it in any liquid, but acid makes it rust faster.
Vinegar contains acetic acid which acts as a weak electrolyte, providing a pathway for the flow of electricity between the iron in the nail and oxygen in the air. This reaction leads to the formation of iron oxide, commonly known as rust, on the surface of the nail.
A nail made out of just iron will rust really fast if it is exposed to oxygen. Nails available now, are galvanized nail which has a coating of copper metal on the surface of iron nail. This slows down process of rusting. Exposing a iron nail to water and other acidic environment along with oxygen, can make a nail rust pretty fast.
They combine to form rust. You might be able to guess from what's combining that "rust" is apparently an iron oxide.
Yes ,Clorox can make a nail rust.
The acid in the drink makes the nail rust. The nail would rust if you put it in any liquid, but acid makes it rust faster.
An iron nail will rust slowly in distilled water when that water has dissolved oxygen. If you get rid of the oxygen by boiling and keep it from getting back in then the iron nail will not rust at all.

i think vinegar will make a nail rust faster because vinegar will makes the mental with iron in them.
Not exactly. Acid eats iron through a chemical reaction, but oxidation (rust) is something different.
coke will make it rust faster
It's not just saltwater that makes a nail rust, even water makes a nail rust. Rust is simply oxidation, it happens when oxygen comes into contact with something and creates a chemical reaction and creates "oxides". Iron + oxygen = Iron oxide (red rust on steel)
There is no such thing as acid rain but you can make drops of acid depending on its pH level on top of iron.
Iron present in the nail oxidizes in oxygen to form the iron oxides
Rust refers to a reddish or yellowish-brown flaky coating of iron oxide. Some substances that remove rust from a nail are white vinegar, lime and salt, baking soda and oxalic acid.
If it is a new nail it will probably just turn dark. If it's a rusty nail it will become rust free.
It either cleans the nail, or makes the nail have rust.
