उत्तर
1. Rusting of Iron:
- Why Harmful: Rusting weakens iron and steel structures, leading to potential failures and increased maintenance costs.
- Prevention: Apply protective coatings like paint or use galvanization (coating with zinc) to prevent exposure to moisture and oxygen.
2. Food Spoilage:
- Why Harmful: Spoiled food can cause food poisoning and waste valuable resources.
- Prevention: Store food properly in cool, dry places, use refrigeration, and adhere to proper hygiene practices to slow down spoilage.

No chemical reaction takes place when granules of a rusty-brown solid A are mixed with the powder of another solid B. However, when the mixture is heated, a reaction takes place between its components. One of the products C is a metal and settles down in the molten state while the other product D floats over it. It was observed that the reaction is highly exothermic.
