Yes. Whether the water is fresh or salty, it still has oxygen in it and the metal will oxidize over time. If the metal is Gold, plutonium or titanium it wont rust because these metals dont oxidize. If you place metal (iron) in oil, it wont rust.

∙ 12y agoNo, metal will not rust in vaccum water because the process of rusting requires the presence of oxygen and water.But in this case only water is present and since this water contains no air(nor does it contain oxygen) rusting will not take place.
Water in a vacuum will become a gas. Then the vacuum is not a vacuum unless 0 mmHg is re-obtained. Then, no... no rust because there are no reactants in the latter case.

∙ 11y agoYes, metal can "rust" without water. Rust is a form of oxidation, and all that is necessary for oxidation to occur is the presence of oxygen. Without water, however, the process of oxidation is vastly slower.

∙ 13y agoiron will rust under water due to the oxygen dissovled in the water
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoYes. It is the bounding of oxygen with the metal that causes oxidation.

warm water will rust metal faster
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.
Most likely salt water. The salt accelerates the rate of corrosion, plus it has the oxygen needed for the metal to rust. Tap water has the oxygen too but with the salt also, it would cause the metal to rust more rapidly.
Rust occurs when a metal oxidizes. The ingredients needed to make a metal rust is oxygen and breaking compounds such as the citric acid in orange juice or salty water in oceans.
Is the breaking down of electron in a metal due to chemical reaction which passes quicker through the salt to get to the metal
warm water will rust metal faster
rust is a chemical change it happens when weather is changing. rust jhappens when oxygen and water hit it
well hot liquids heat metal and cold liquids cool metal this answer is stupid change me
The oxygen in the water reacts with the metal in the nail - forming metal oxide (rust)
Yes, it does.
To avoid rusting. Corrugated metals don't rust, no matter the amount of heat and water on it.
its cold water
I dont think nails rust in the cold but if and type of precipitation gets to it then yes it will rust.
Iron will slowly rust in cold water.
Firstly, put metal into water. When these two chemicals engage, the watery metal get's exposed to oxygin which produces rust. So all you need for this is metal and water!
Hot water pipe rust first as compared to the cold water pipe for the same chemical composition of the water.
Rust is non-living. Rust is caused by water and air causing metal to corrode,
