On the illustration of a generic cell for In/Zn electrodes immersed in their salt solutions a) the anode: b) cathode: the direction of cations c) direction of anions d) direction of the electrons flow
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.
