Expert Answer:
Corrosion of iron is known as rusting.
Rusting is a slow oxidation process in which iron slowly reacts with oxygen of the air in the presence of moisture and produces a flaky brown substance called rust.
Rust is hydrated ferric oxide (
), which forms a reddish brown coating over iron.

- i havea doubt in this equation which is likethis given below - i) Iron react with steam to form the metal oxide and hydrogen. 3Fe(s) + 4H2O(g) → Fe3O4(s) + 4H2(g) (1) why the there is Fe3O4 in the above equation and why not Fe2O3 (2)kindely explain me how we came to this equation (2)(a) What is the equation for the reaction of calcium and potassium in water? Calcium and potassium do not react with each other, but each decomposes water to make the relevant hydroxide with the release of hydrogen. Ca + 2H₂O → Ca(OH)₂ + H₂. 2K + 2H₂O → 2KOH + H₂.
