What element forms a corrosion proof relective coating on telescope mirrors?
Silver (Ag)
When is corrosion useful?
Corrosion will be useful when you work on corrosion industry.
Mild steel has poor resistance to corrosion and will rust because?
if there has been no thin layer of oil covering the metal then it will rust because things in the air react wil the metal causing it to rust
Is ease of corrosion a physical change or a chemical change?
The ease of corrosion of resistance to corrosion is a chemical property and not a physical one. Corrosion is a chemical change which changes the identity of the substance.
What is the fundamental process of corrosion?
damental procces of corrosion
Word equation for corrosion of silver?
silver + oxygen => silver oxide
How do I Remove battery corrosion buildup?
Rinse with a mild acid such as vinegar.
How do you prevent silver corrosion?
by covering with stainless steel
Why isn't silver used in water pipes?
It causes corrosion
What is the colour of mild steel?
silver or red
What is the main advantage of using stainless steel instead of mild steel?
Many stainless steels are stronger than mild steel. Stainless steel is also corrosion resistant to many different environments where mild steel is not.
Why soak a shower hose in vinegar?
Vinegar is a mild acid. It can dissolve the buildup of salts and corrosion from water deposits.
What are the strengths and weaknesses of mild steel?
Aluminium is very light. It can suffer very intense corrosion, but that leads to one of its greatest strengths: the corrosion forms a very well-formed protective oxidant layer (Al2O3) which prevents the further corrosion. In that way, the low-resistance of aluminum to its initial corrosion, results to one of the better corrosion-protected metals in industry.
Why is silver used in electrical equipment?
It has low resistance/good conductivity and it is resistant to corrosion
What is about zinc?
It is silver in colour. It has a low melting point. It is resistant to corrosion, despite its reactivity.
What element forms a corrosion proof relective coating on telescope mirrors?
Silver (Ag)
What is the main advantage of stainless steel over mild steel?
Many stainless steels are stronger. It's also more corrosion resistant.
