ACTIVITY Aim : To show that air and water are necessary for rusting to take place. Materials Required : Three boiling tubes, iron nails, cork, anhy. CaCl2, oil. Procedure : 1. Take three boiling tubes A, B and C. 2. Pour some water in test tube A . Put iron nails in it and cork it. 3. Pour boiled distilled water in another test tube B and put iron nails in it. Add 1 mL of oil over it such that oil floats over it and prevents the air from entering. 4. Take some iron nails in test tube C and put some anhydrous calcium chloride in and cork it. 5. Leave all the three test tubes for one day and then observe.
Observation : Iron nails get rusted
in test tube A because both air and water are present in it. Iron nails do
not get rusted in B because there is water but no air. In C, rusting will not
take place because there is neither air nor water.
