1. No, as rusting is a very slow process as compared to combustion and the heat evolve in combustion is much more than rusting. Rusting can take place at room temperature but combustion need an ignition temperature. https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-8/science/chapter-6/

  4. CO2, being heavier than oxygen, covers the fire like a blanket. Since the contact between the fuel and oxygen is cut off, the fire is controlled. https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-8/science/chapter-6/
