Answer to Problem 52AAP

The current density associated with corrosion rate is 4.52×107A/cm2.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression for corrosion current.

  I=wnFtM                                                                                                       (I)

Here, the corrosion mass is w, the corrosion time is t, the current flow is I, atomic mass of the metal is M, number of electrons per atoms produced or consumed in the process is n, and the Faraday’s constant is F, F=96500C/molor96500As/mol.

Write the formula for current density (i).

  i=IA                                                                                                           (II)

Here, the current flow is I, the area is A.

Refer Equation (II).

Substitute iA for I in Equation (I).

  iA=wnFtMi=wnFAtMi=(wAt)(nFM)                                                                                           (III)

Here, the corrosion rate per area is w/At.

Conclusion:

It is given that corroding rate 2.40mdd is in the unit of mg of metal per square decimeter per day.

The unit conversion of mdd to g/cm2day is as follows.

  corrosion rate ing/cm2day=2.40mgdm2day×1g1000mg×dm2100cm2=2.4×105g/cm2day

Refer Table 13.1, “Standard electrode potentials at 25 °C”.

The anodic reaction of tin is as follows:

  Sn2++2eSn

Here, the number of electrons produced is, n=2.

Refer Figure 2.3, “Periodic Table of Elements”

The atomic mass of tin is, MSn=118.70g/mol.

Substitute 2.4×105g/cm2day for w/At, 2 for n, 96500As/mol for F, 2419200s for t, and 118.70g/mol for M in Equation (III).

  i=(2.4×105g/cm2day)(2×96500As/mol118.70g/mol)=(2.4×105gcm2day×1day24hr×1hr3600s)(2×96500As/mol118.70g/mol)=(2.7777×1010gcm2s)(1625.9477As/g)=4.5165×107A/cm2

  4.52×107A/cm2

Thus, the current density associated with corrosion rate is 4.52×107A/cm2.
