Question 16 Cr₂O72 (aq) + (aq) → Cr³+(aq) + 103¯(aq) From the unbalanced equation above, what is the correct balanced half-reaction equation for the oxidation half-reaction in an acidic medium? a) Cr₂O7²-(aq) + 3 e¯ → Cr³+ (aq) b) Cr₂07²-(aq) + 6 e¯ + 14 H*(aq) → 2 Cr³*(aq) + 7 H₂O(aq) ○ c) I¯(aq) + 3 H₂O(l) → 103¯(aq) + 6 e¯ + 6 H*(aq) d) 1(aq) → 103 (aq) + 6 e¯
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.
