vinegar rusts may things including nails, steel or aluminium foil. they say that it also removes rust. i don't know i'm only eleven. i'm looking for answers coz i didn't do my science experiment
Aluminum foil does not rust; it corrodes. Vinegar is acidic and can accelerate the corrosion process of aluminum foil compared to water. The acid in vinegar increases the rate of oxidation, which leads to the formation of aluminum oxide on the foil's surface.
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.
the chemacls in vinager makes the penny rust
Zinc will corrode in vinegar faster than salt water
because vineager is magical
i think vinegar will make a nail rust faster because vinegar will makes the mental with iron in them.
The liquid that would rust the nail faster would be coke, as it is acidic and can accelerate the rusting process. Vinegar could also speed up the rusting due to its acidity, while orange juice and water would not have as strong of an effect on rusting.
Nails will rust faster in salt water compared to tap water or vinegar. Salt water contains electrolytes that accelerate the rusting process by increasing the conductivity of the water. Vinegar, on the other hand, is slightly acidic and might slow down the rusting process by forming a protective layer on the nail's surface.
Vinegar. Iron rusting is Fe------> Fe2+ + 2e- . A surface can not just acquire charge so there has to be a balancing reaction to consume the electrons. There are two main ones 2H2O + O2 + 4e- -----> 4OH- neutral and alkaline solutions - relatively slow. 2H+ + 2e- ------> H2 acidic solutions - extremely fast. So whenever acid is present and protons are produced, corrosion occurs faster due to the kinetics of electron consumption.

Rust is Iron oxide, so no.
A nail would probably rust faster in fresh water because rusting, also called oxidation occurs when large amounts of oxygen are forced into the metals pores, causing it to turn brittle.
