It doesn't in many of them - for instance, the very many stainless steels. Corrosion is common to very many metals and it is basic chemistry - if the reaction (oxidation) has a sufficiently low activation energy and is exothermic, it will tend to happen spontaneously.

What is the difference between the corrosion of ferrous and non ferrous metals?
corrosion of a nonferrous metal is differnent to ferrous because u are sex,
What is the difference between the corrosion of ferrous and nonferrous metals?
Ferrous rust's and non ferrous doesn't. :))
What are the differences between ferrous and non ferrous metals?
ferrous metals contain iron, non-ferrous metals do not.
Why are ferrous metals called ferrous metals?
from the latin for iron
Why percentage of ferrous metals is higher than non ferrous metals?
because ferrous metals are stronger and harder than ferrous metals thats why they are extensively used in structural application.

What are the kinds of corrosion affected in ferrous metals?
The kind of corrosion affected in ferrous metals is rust. This is frequently seen on automobiles and is more frequent in humid climates.
What is the definition of metals?
Ferrous metals are those contain iron. All ferrous metals are magnetic and give little resistance to corrosion.
What is nonferrous?
Non Ferrous metals are those metals which do not contain iron.They are not magnetic and are usually more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals.
What are ferrous materials?
Materials that are closely related to, or have iron in them.
Why is ferrous alloy has more corrosion resistant then iron?
An alloy is a mixture of metals and a ferrous alloy is an alloy who's main constituent is iron. Iron in itself is extremely susceptible to corrosion, however, with the addition of other metals to create a ferrous alloy, such as the addition of slag (Such as in wrought iron), Nickel (Alnico, Invar, etc), Maganese (Bismanthol), Chromium (Kanthal), Titanium (Ferrotitanium) and so on give the alloy it's corrosion resistance. So, in short, almost, if not all ferrous alloys contain a constituent that is corrosion resistant, hence why ferrous alloys are more resistant to corrosion that straight iron.
What are the differences between ferrous and non ferrous metals?
ferrous metals contain iron, non-ferrous metals do not.
What happens to metal when expossed to acid?
Corrosion occur with most metals.
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.
