oh do go on with the lame troll of poorly researched science.
Using google and handbooks to make your post is doing it
just like me. CopyCAT!

Better yet. Just tell me to STFU!
You can kiss my ass if you like.

Oh, really??? What, then, pray tell is oxidation???

Rust is Fe203, primarily an oxidation product of Fe and O2.

Water does **NOT** contain oxygen molecules unless some oxygen molecules
have been disolved in it.

Which is, in fact, the case w/ virtually all water in contact w/ air as
the solubility of O2 is reasonably high...

Where does the air entrained in hot water come from you think???

This is why closed loop heating systems, made almost completely out of iron
and steel pipe and fittings do not rust themselves out.

Mostly because they have controls to prevent the introduction of
additional air and maintenance practices to remove what is in them...
