Solution

The correct option is B Rusting of iron

Rusting of iron is a chemical reaction. When iron rusts, it reacts with oxygen present in water or moisture in the air to create a new compound called iron(III) oxide (rust) which has properties entirely different from that of iron or oxygen. Also, the process is irreversible.
