ummmmm....... you really cant figure this one out. think about it what rusts? iron. so therefore rust must be some combination of iron and another material. in this case oxygen. so your formula would be Fe3O2
should be Fe2O3; ferric oxide.

Do atomic nucleus contain molecules?
no atoms make up molecules and protons neutrons and electrons make up atoms.
What do atoms make up?
Atoms make up all elements such as Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. Atoms make up all matter in the Universe.
How does rust affect magnets?
Magnetism is the "lining up" of atoms. Iron atoms line up easily and tend to stay lined up. Rust is iron plus oxygen plus space: since there is less iron in a given volume of rust than in the same volume of solid iron, there are fewer iron atoms present to be polarized.

What atoms make up a compound?
the semi adhiesive atoms
Does rust make something heavier?
If you weigh a piece of steel, and then allow it to rust and weigh it again, it will be heavier by a small amount. The difference will be the weight of the oxygen atoms that have become bound to the iron molecules.
