âSpoons come in many different sizes and are not precise enough to measure a childâs medication,â said pediatrician Ian Paul, MD, FAAP, lead author of the policy statement. âFor infants and toddlers, a small error â especially if repeated for multiple doses â can quickly become toxic.â.
Copper and bronze do not contain any iron, and only iron can rust (because rust is defined as iron oxide, a compound of iron and oxygen); so the answer is that steel will rust the fastest and copper and bronze will never 'rust'. But, yes, copper and bronze do tarnish, they do corrode.
Surface rust is flaky and friable, and it provides no protection to the underlying iron, unlike the formation of patina on copper surfaces. Rusting is the common term for corrosion of iron and its alloys, such as steel. Many other metals undergo similar corrosion, but the resulting oxides are not commonly called rust. Other forms of rust exist, like the result of reactions between iron and chloride in an environment deprived of oxygen. Rebar used in underwater concrete pillars, which generates green rust, is an example.
