Sea Seat Man’s Homey Beach Day
A man brought his own table and set of chairs, half submerged, to the beach. He seems to be having a nice time sitting on one as people swim behind him. He probably felt right at home! Well, metal chairs do not float because they are denser than water.
The weight of the metal causes them to sink rather than float. Yes, they can rust. When metal is exposed to water and oxygen, it undergoes a chemical reaction called oxidation, leading to rust. This process is more rapid in salt water due to electrolytes, which speed up the reaction.
