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.

Define Reduction of RCOCl and RCOOR′ with a Metal Hydride
Reagent ?
To define the reduction of RCOCl and RCOOR’ with a metal hydride reagent.
Metal hydride are the compounds of metal cation and hydride anions. Let consider the a common metal hydride reagent LiAlH4. It act as a strong reducing agent. It reduces the RCOCl (Acyl Chlorides) and RCOOR’ (Esters) to alcohols by the nucleophillic attack of the hydrogen ion of the metal hydride.
The general reaction of the reduction of RCOCl and RCOOR’ is shown below.
