    Some iron nails were stored in containers for a few weeks as shown in the diagram below. 
     
    Only the nails in bottle X rusted. What will be a suitable conclusion for the given experiment? 
         

    A) Rusting requires water only.

    B) Rusting requires air only.

    C) Rusting requires both water and air.

    D) Rusting requires neither air nor water.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As only nails in bottle X got rusted, this means both water and air are required for rusting (as bottle X is fulfilling both the conditions). Bottle 'W has only air, bottle 'Y' has only water and bottle 'Z' has oil, i.e., neither air nor water.
