(b) Looking inAppendix E, suggest what metal the underground pipescould be made from in order for magnesium to be successfulas a sacrificial anode.
Which of the following aboutsacrificial anodes is wrong? a)Generally, low percentage alloys are preferred instead of pure metal as the galvanic anode. b)Noble metals in the anode composition have a passivating effect on the anode. c)Magnesium anodes,especially high potential magnesium anodes,are preferred for high resistance grounds andfresh waters. d)Aluminum anodes cannotbe used in pure form, as they passivateeasily. e)The current strength drawnfrom the sacrificial anode is independent of the anode resistance and the potentialdifference between the anode-cathode.
