What else can I help you with?
What happens when you put acid on metal?
depending on the kind of acid and the metal, corrosion may occur
What happens to metal when expossed to acid?
Corrosion occur with most metals.
What is the only non-metal to occur as liquid?
It is Bromine.
When metal enters a chemical reaction what is it called?
The process called when metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction is called Corrosion. Electrochemical of oxidation of metals reacts with oxygen thus corrosion will occur on metals.
What is nature of Mercury?
Mercury do not occur in combine state (i.e. it occur in free state) and in liquid form. It is the only metal who occur in liquid form.
What is the process called when a metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction?
The process called when metal is destroyed by a chemical reaction is called Corrosion. Electrochemical of oxidation of metals reacts with oxygen thus corrosion will occur on metals.
What is wet corrosion and galvanic corrosion?
The dry corrosion is the corrosion of the metal that takes place in the absence of conducting(aqueous) medium. The reaction between metal and oxygen (atmosphere) at elevated temperatures in perfectly dry conditions is an example of dry corrosion.
What environmental conditions are needed for corrosion to occur?
Corrosion occurs when metal is exposed to moisture and oxygen in the environment, leading to a chemical reaction that deteriorates the metal surface. Other factors that can influence corrosion include temperature, pH levels, and the presence of contaminants in the environment. Adequate ventilation and controlled humidity levels can help reduce the likelihood of corrosion.
What are the condition that promote corrosion?
Both air and water are needed for corrosion to take place
What are three ways to protect metal from corrosion and how do they work to stop it?
Here are four ways (adapted from the related link): Corrosion control Protective coatings: Most widely used corrosion control technique. Protective coatings protect metal from corrosion by separating the surfaces that are susceptible to corrosion from the factors in the environment which cause corrosion to occur. Cathodic protection: interferes with the natural action of the electrochemical cells that are responsible for corrosion. Cathodic protection can be effectively applied to control corrosion of surfaces that are immersed in water or exposed to soil. Corrosion inhibitor: Uses one or more of these mechanisms: Adsorption as a thin film on the surface of a corroding material; inducing formation of a thick corrosion product; forming a passive film on the metal surface; changing characteristics of the environment either by producing protective precipitates or by removing or inactivating an aggressive constituent.
What is high corrosion?
Chemical deterioration of a material (typically a metal) under very high temperature conditions. This non-galvanic form of corrosion can occur when a metal is subject to a high temperature atmosphere containing oxygen, sulfur or other compounds capable of oxidising (or assisting the oxidation of) the material concerned.
What is concentration cell corrosion?
This is a phenomenon which can occur when a metal is in contact with an environment that contains different concentrations of electrochemically active constituents at different points on the surface of the metal and thereby maintains differences of electrical potential on different parts of the surface of the metal.
