Rust is specifically oxidized iron and the most common way to prevent it is by painting it.
Additionally a common pre-consumer method is to electrochemically add a layer of zinc on the iron which is commonly seen in galvanized nails. The zinc will only be oxidized for the first few nanometers of the layer and it will prevent oxygen from reaching the inner iron.

How is iron gate prevented from rusting?

How are metals treated to prevent them from rusting?
Metals are prevented from rusting by providing a coating on the surface of the metal to stop the metal from mixing with oxygen and H2O in the air. Please do not copy this word for word. I am handing this in for a report. Thanks!
How can rusting of objects be prevented?
Rusting of objects can be prevented by using protective coatings such as paint, oil, or galvanization to create a barrier between the object and oxygen and moisture in the air. Keeping objects dry, storing them in a low-humidity environment, and using desiccants can also help prevent rusting. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and lubricating, can further protect objects from rust.
What is the name of slow oxidation reaction involving metals?
corrosion (in iron this is called rusting)
What will happen if you put the rusting metals in the vinegar and alcohol?
Vinegar can corrode iron, alcohol not.

What elements undergoes rusting?
Most of the metals will oxidize, but the only one for which that process is called "rusting" is iron.
How can you change the environment for rusting metals?
You can reduce the air humidity is less oxidizing metals.
Why do metals have to be sandpapered from time to time?
To avoid rusting
What are some rusting material?
Different types of Metals such as Steel.
How does living near the sea contribute to rusting?
Near the sea exposed metals have a greater exposure to salts, which accelerate the rusting process.
Which metals can be used to protect iron from rusting and how?
Try covering it in Zinc
Will oxygen rust?
No. Rusting is a process exclusive to metals, particularly iron.
