Rust on metal is an oxide of that metal. Most commonly it refers to iron oxide.
Rust on a plant is a disease caused by a pathogenic fungus.
In English the same word is used for these two very different things, possibly because the fungus on a leaf looks something like rust on iron. Many other languages use completely unrelated words for the two things.

Is rust forming on the metal gate is a physical or chemical change?
Rust forming on a metal gate is a chemical change. It is a result of a chemical reaction between iron, oxygen, and water, which leads to the formation of iron oxide (rust).
What metal has the ability to rust?
Iron is the only metal that can rust. The usual term for the destruction of a metal by oxidation is corrosion, and 'rust' or 'rusting' is the term for corrosion specific to iron and its compounds.
How is rust form on place steel?
Rust is formed when oxygen combines with metal that is untreated with items that keep the metal looking young and new.
Do plants absorb rust?
Plants do not absorb rust, as rust is a form of iron oxide that is not beneficial for plant growth. In fact, excessive iron oxide in the soil can be harmful to plants by affecting nutrient uptake and causing toxicity.
Is metal rust bad for trees?

Does metal rust faster in light?
No light evaporates the water rusting the metal, not a lot but enough to make a significant difference.
How does the difference in concentration of saltwater affect the oxidation of a metal?
The more saltwter will make it rust faster.
What is the best rust solution for metal?

Is rust a type of fungus?

How does cast iron respond to rust?
Rust is the oxidation of the cast iron. Oxygen in the air combines with the base metal to create the rust. The rust protects the metal underneath. Cast iron is not "reacting" to rust. It is participating in FORMING the rust. ************** previous answer below *************** Very well as the rust actually protects the base metal
