Rusting of a nail (usually iron) happens due to the reaction of the iron surface with water(moisture of surroundings) and oxygen(air).......Inside tapwater in the fridge there is too less amount of oxygen(1 of the reactants) available...So this reaction won't take place....and rust as a product wont be effectively formed....Therefore we can say that there is almost no rusting.....
you really should pay attention in class
It will rust faster in a salt water base and it will also rust faster in a tap water base not a sugary or a pop type, they have a slower fashion of rusting.
Moisture and oxygen in the air are the main factors that contribute to rusting in nails. High humidity levels can accelerate the rusting process as it provides more moisture for the oxidation of the iron in the nail. Exposing the nail to salty or acidic environments can also speed up rust formation.
If the refrigerator water is filtered, then it would be different from the tap water coming from the sink.
no
If a nail is kept in tap water, it can start to rust due to the presence of oxygen and minerals in water. Over time, the nail's surface may corrode and form a reddish-brown layer known as rust.
salt water
Distilled water will rust a nail faster as distilled water contains higher levels of OXYGEN which is what causes OXIDATION or commonly referred to as rust...
An iron nail will rust faster in saltwater than in tap water. This is because saltwater is conductive and accelerates the rusting process by promoting the flow of electrons between the iron nail and oxygen in the water.
Most likely salt water. Depending on the chlorine levels in the tap.

Oxidation, commonly known as rust. If the water is chlorinated or fluoridated, there are secondary effects, as well.
i think it's none the answer is salt water
First of all Nails in salt water rust quicker. That's because salt is sodium chloride and that affects a nail by rusting it.No i did a experiment on which one rust faster. After 5 days the nail in the tap water rusted way faster than the nail in the salt water. With DISTILLED water, the nail will not rust as fast as the salt. TAP water will rust faster then salt.
If both t etap water and the distilled water are open to the air and both have dissolved oxygen then the iron nail will rust faster in tap water. Rusting requires dissolved oxygen and goes faster if there are dissolved salts.
