Steel wool is mostly made of iron. It is a very fine material used as an abrasive. This material oxidizes (rusts) readily in the presence of water and oxygen. Iron nails rust as well. How would the rate of rusting of a piece of steel wool compare with that of an iron nail? Defend your answer.

Steel wool rusts faster because more Surface Area is exposed in a steel wool compared to the iron nail and more surface area means faster rusting rates
