Meaning of rust and rusting​

Chemistry
2 answers:

Rust is a coating that occurs on the surface of iron as it oxidizes. Rust is also known as iron oxide and corrosion. This chemical compound comes in many different combinations of iron and oxygen. Rust is reddish-orange in color.

Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron(III) oxide, which we see as rust. Unlike rust, which can flake off the surface of iron and steel objects, the layer of aluminium oxide does not flake off

Does beryllium (Be) or Sodium (Na) have the same electron arrangement as Magnesium (Mg)? Why?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Na has the most similar configuration.

Explanation:

Na electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ or [Ne] 3s₁

Mg electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s² or [Ne] 3s²

Be electron configuration: 1s²2s² or [He] 2s²

This is because Na and Mg are right next to each other in the same period (horizontal).
