Which of the situations below is unlikely? a. A magnesium bar is attached to a buried iron pipe to protect the pipe from corrosion. b. A solution of ZnCl2 stored in an aluminum container was found to be impure. c. When a strip of zinc is placed for some minutes in a solution of CuS04 the blue color fades away. d. Metals such
Science behind corrosion-test
Corrosion is defined as an activity that transforms refined metals into more chemically stable forms such as oxide, hydroxide, carbonate, or sulfide. It refers to the slow decomposition of things (typically metals); thanks to chemical and/or electrochemical reactions with their surroundings. Corrosion engineering is the science of preventing and controlling corrosion.
