Answer 5

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The correct answer is oxidation. When metals, such as iron, come into contact with oxygen and moisture, a chemical reaction known as oxidation occurs. This reaction causes the formation of rust on the surface of the metal. Rust is a reddish-brown substance that weakens the metal and gradually destroys it.
