When sodium hydroxide solution is added to a rusty nail, it reacts with the iron oxide (rust) to form soluble sodium ferrate, which helps to dissolve and remove the rust from the surface of the nail. This process is known as chemical dissolution, where the sodium hydroxide breaks down the rust into a soluble form that can be easily washed away.
