Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.96SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Cathodic protection has to be given and from the given metals one could offer cathodic protection to iron has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Corrosion:
The change in surface of certain metallic objects when left unused for longer period time is called as corrosion. Corrosion leads to the slow degradation of the metal. Rusting is one of the ways of corrosion in metals. It can generally be seen in iron and its alloys.
Corrosion of any metal is natural process. It results in the conversion of metal to its chemically stable that could be either oxides or hydroxides or sulphides.
