Consider the following half reactions in the attached image and their corresponding standard reduction potentials: 1. Based on the given half reactions, the strongest oxidizing agent is ________ while the strongest reducing agent is _________.
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.
