how long does it take for vinegar to rust a nail?

The time required to rust Steel nail depends on many factors like the temperature of the vinegar, the concentration of vinegar and the type of Steel. If you want to speed up the corrosion process you can heat up th vinegar. Temperature has an effect on the Corrosion process. An increase of temperature increse the Corrosion rate. Vinegar contains a weak acid, typical white distilled vinegar is at least 4% acidity and not more than 7%. Cider and wine vinegars are typically slightly more acidic with approximately 5-6% acidity. An higher acid concentration  increase the Corrosion rate 'cause pH has an effect on Corrosion of Iron, as a general rule the lower the pH the higher the corrosion rate.
