Solution

The correct option is A True
Combustion is a chemical process in which a substance reacts with oxygen and gives out energy. The energy released can be either in the form of heat or light or both. Rusting of iron is an exothermic process as heat is released during the process. Hence, it is a kind of slow combustion.
