What is rusting

Answer
Kutu ni mchakato wa kuharibika kwa chuma unaotokea wakati chuma kinapokutana na oksijeni na unyevu.
Hatua kwa hatua:
- Chuma, hasa chuma cha kaboni (iron), huanza kuguswa na oksijeni kutoka hewani.
- Uwepo wa maji au unyevu huharakisha mchakato huu, na kutengeneza kioksidishaji cha chuma (iron oxide), ambacho tunakijua kama kaliti au rust.
- Kaliti ni dutu nyekundu-kahawia ambayo huongezeka na kufanya chuma kuwa dhaifu na hatimaye kuharibika.
Mchakato huu unahitaji oksijeni na maji. Ondoa mojawapo, na kutu haitatokea.
