उत्तर
The iron rust is formed due to Electrochemical reaction. Different regions on iron surface become anode and cathode.
Reaction on anode region :
`F_e(s) → Fe^(2+) (aq) +2e^-`
Reaction on anode region :
`O_2(g) + 4H^+(aq) + 4 e- → 2H_2 O (l) `
When Fe2+ ions migrate from anode region they react with water to form Fe3+ ions.
A reddish coloured hydrated oxide is formed from Fe3+ ions. It is called rust.
`2Fe_(3+) (aq) + 4H_2O(l) → Fe_2O_3 . H_2O(s) + 6H_+(aq) `
