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.
Salt water will rust a penny faster than vinegar because salt water is an electrolyte that enhances the electrical conductivity, accelerating the oxidation process on the surface of the penny.
I believe tap runs faster
Iron will rust more quickly in salt water than fresh freshwater. The salt in the water accelerates the corrosion process.
Modern coins cannot rust, as they are not made of iron.
Salt water is a more conductive solution than tap water, which accelerates the electrochemical process of iron oxidation (rusting). The chloride ions in salt water can also react with the iron to form more rust at a faster rate compared to tap water.
Salt water does make nails rust faster than non-salted water, because when salt is added to water, it will rust the top layer of the nail, and then make the nail basically shed its top layer. Then the salt will rust that layer, and this process continues until the whole nail is rusted. Normal water can only really rust the top layer, and can't get to the rest of the nail.
Because the ion chloride (Cl-) from salt is very corrosive.
Yes, because the chlorine ion is corrosive.
Bleach rusts faster i know this because I did a science experiment on this and bleach was first to begin first
An iron nail will rust faster in saltwater than in tap water. This is because saltwater is conductive and accelerates the rusting process by promoting the flow of electrons between the iron nail and oxygen in the water.
Salt water will rust steel faster than fresh water or refrigerated water. This is due to the corrosive properties of salt, which accelerates the oxidation process that leads to rust formation on steel surfaces.
First of all Nails in salt water rust quicker. That's because salt is sodium chloride and that affects a nail by rusting it.No i did a experiment on which one rust faster. After 5 days the nail in the tap water rusted way faster than the nail in the salt water. With DISTILLED water, the nail will not rust as fast as the salt. TAP water will rust faster then salt.
