What makes copper corrode?
usually copper corrodes from a chemical process known as "galvanic reaction". This is caused when copper is touching dissimilar metal such as steel or galvanized. a di-electric union is used to prevent this. further questions Jeff at jlgprop@yahoo.com
Can bronze fittings be connected to galvanized pipe?
yes. Copper to Galvanized must have a dielectric fitting to avoid a galvanic reaction causing corrosion and eventual leaks.
Is it okay to connect copper pipe to brass to galvanized to brass and back to copper or will it cause a reaction that will corrode the pipes?
If you do connect copper pipe to galvanized pipe, you will need a dielectric coupling or else the galvanized pipe will corrode. Same with connecting galvanized pipe to brass fittings. Brass is an alloy that contains copper and therefore the same electrolytic properties will exist unless a dielectric coupling is used. Hope that helps you out.
Can you connect copper to galvanized using only a bronze fitting?
There are copper fittings that will connect to galvanized.
Why should you not replace a section of galvanized iron pipe with copper pipe when doing plumbing repairs?
Because you will then get a 'galvanic reaction'.
What fitting is required to join copper with galvanized pipe?
A threaded copper fitting on the copper side, male or female, and the galvanized is screwed into it.
Reaction between glucose and copper oxide with lime water?
chemical reaction between copper oxide and glucose
How do you make cupric chloride?
- reaction between copper and chlorine - reaction between HCl and some copper compounds
What is the reaction between copper sulphate and lead?
there is no reaction
What would be seen in a reaction between copper sulphate and magnesium?
magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction
What is the reaction between copper oxide and carbon?
Well, im guessing that the reaction between the two will be >> copper oxide + carbon (arrow) carbon oxide + copper.
Reaction between copper oxide and hydrogen?
Copper and water
