Rust occurs when metal reacts with oxygen. The process of anything reacting with oxygen is called oxidization. Therefore, a scientific name for rust can be the name of the metal plus oxide (ex: iron oxide).

∙ 16y agoRust is a general term for a series of iron oxides formed by the reaction of iron with oxygen in the presence of water. Several forms of rust are distinguishable visually and by spectroscopy, and form under different circumstances.[1] Rust consists of hydrated iron(III) oxides Fe2O3·nH2O, iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH)
