NO!!!! The whole point of Stainless Steel is that it does NOT rust, hence the name 'Stainless'.
Yes, stainless steel is an iron-carbon alloy with a minimum of 11.5 wt% chromium content. Many of the common grades of stainless steel such as AISI 304, 316, 316L also have greater than 5% Nickel added. It improves the high temperature performance and stabilizes the austenite phase.
Real silver is much shinier than stainless steel, which is typically what consumers purchase as silverware. Unless your silverware is only used for special occasions, you are most likely using stainless steel.
as much as somebody is willing to pay
Scrap metal value depends on what type of metal your dealing with. Copper is more then steel on a per ton basis and there are exotic metals like inconel, carbide, monels, titaniums that are worth a significant amount of money per pound. Prices for metals vary per the LME, Comex, and world markets so each days prices can be and typically are diferent. Check on the internet for sites that offer daily scrap metal price updates and charts to make sure you are getting the best prices. Also check with your local scrap yards.
At about 762 nails per pound for stainless steel they don't weigh much. Call it 47 ish per once or .021 of a Pound each
Lead is much heavier than stainless steel.
Unfortunately nickel is usually alloyed into a metal; for example stainless steel has high chromium and nickel content in order to boost its corrosion resistance. When you scrap your nickel alloy, you should get payed accordingly to how much nickel is in the alloy.
Some of the older stainless steel microwaves can be a bit heavier than conventional microwave. However they have developed stainless steel microwaves that are made with a lighter stainless steel casing making them less heavy.
because it is

you need to find a cleaner that is specificaly for stainless steel items. Pretty much any sort of stainless steel cleaner should be sufficient.
The value of stainless steel jewelry depends on many different factors. These factors include the design of the jewelry, who made the jewelry, and the amount of stainless steel in it.
Not much.
Trumpets typically aren't made of steel.
Stainless steel does not corrode like other metals do. because of the tannic acid in cedar and the fact that it will be outdoors stainless steel will resist corrision much better.
Stainless steel is a ferrous metal, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.A ferrous metal is one that contains primarily iron. Nonferrous metals are all metals other than iron, and alloys without an appreciable iron content.Chemically, stainless steels are 75-90% iron. They are alloyed with varying amounts of chromium, nickel, and/or molybdenum. Some grades of stainless steel are magnetic, some are not. The different grades also have different welding characteristics; some are easy to weld while others are difficult.Scrapyards that move ferrous metals with electromagnets may classify the nonmagnetic grades of stainless steel as nonferrous for handling purposes.Scrap dealers may also categorize stainless steel as nonferrous because the dollar value associated with scrap stainless steel is dependant on the alloy content; the alloys are much more valuable than iron. For these dealers, price is the primary interest and their classification as nonferrous is based on the price they can obtain from the alloy metals in the steel.These classifications are specialized industry uses of the term nonferrous. Generally and scientifically, all stainless steels are ferrous metals because the majority of their chemical content is iron.Stainless steel is a ferrous alloy, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.
