A rapid way to convert iron to rust (Fe2O3) WITHOUT using heat as a catalyst.

I'm working on an experiment that requires the rapid (minutes rather than days) conversion of Iron into red rust (Fe2O3) WITHOUT using heat as a catalyst.  The reverse reaction (also without heat as a catalyst) would also be helpful.  


Solution Summary

The solution provides and easy to follow explanation of the concepts and gives all mathematical steps wherever necessary.
