Most likely salt water. Depending on the chlorine levels in the tap.
water would make a nail rust faster because nails rust faster in water or any acidic liquads. As I been told
A nail will rust faster in wet soil than water, but if the soil is not wet , the nail will rust faster in water. I hope this answers your question. Bye, Annette Pfohl
nail
coke will make it rust faster
It will rust faster in a salt water base and it will also rust faster in a tap water base not a sugary or a pop type, they have a slower fashion of rusting.
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
Distilled water will rust a nail faster as distilled water contains higher levels of OXYGEN which is what causes OXIDATION or commonly referred to as rust...
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.
Bleach rusts faster i know this because I did a science experiment on this and bleach was first to begin first
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.
This really depends on the concentration of impurities in water. More the impurities, faster it will rust the iron nail. To reduce rusting of any iron the best way is to paint the nail.
