Usually zinc because itis low cost, easy to cover the iron with, and prevents rusting
Roofing nails are zinc coated to help prevent corrosion and rusting when exposed to the elements. The zinc acts as a protective barrier, increasing the longevity and durability of the nails in outdoor applications like roofing.
I done this experiment for 3 weeks and the juice i used (white Grape Juice) did not rust the nail.
Yes & No. Iron is an Element with symbol Fe. Most Nails are an alloy of Iron and other metals and usually coated or anodized. However most nails will still have the properties of pure Iron, such as magnetism and oxidizes rapidly. Iron is an element. Nails are made using iron or iron alloys.
All zinc nails rust over a long period of time. One that has been scratched will rust sooner. You could touch over with a zinc paint. I would need to know more. I cant see any problems.
Rusting of nails is a chemical reaction where iron in the nails reacts with oxygen in the air and water to form iron oxide (rust). This process is a redox reaction where iron is oxidized and oxygen is reduced. The rusting of nails eventually leads to their deterioration and weakening.

The nails should be covered by the shingles or caulk. They should not be rusting.
It needs more than being coffee to prevent

so the things you build with it wont fall or brakedown
7.What effect does water pH have on the rusting of nails?
Galvanized nails are nails treated with Zinc to prevent rusting and other types of corrosion. They are generally used in circumstances where the area may be exposed to drastic elements (humidity, wetness etc.).
If you're speaking about nails as in "hammer & nails" then the effect of water and oxygen will eventually corrode them by rusting.
The fat present in milk becomes deposited on nails and it is water repellent.
Common (uncoated) finishing nails would work.
Rusty nails can be cleaned by using a wire brush or sandpaper to remove the rust. Once the rust is removed, the nails can be soaked in a vinegar solution, lemon juice, or a commercial rust remover to further clean and restore them. After cleaning, dry the nails thoroughly to prevent them from rusting again.
