What else can I help you with?
Can metal which is inside window glass corrode more over time?
If the window is not perfectly sealed (and it isn't likely to be), then it is possible for the metal to corrode due to exposure to oxygen and water.
Why do metals corrode?
Metals corrode due to a chemical reaction with their environment, typically with oxygen or moisture. This reaction causes the metal to form a more stable compound, such as rust, which weakens the metal's structure over time. Control measures such as coating or alloying metals can help prevent corrosion.
Can river water cut through metal?
yes it can. The river will keep flowing and will eventually corrode the metal and therefor probably break the metal in half.
What effect does seawater have on metal?
Metals corrode because electrons are stolen from or donated to them by other compounds in the neighborhood ,typically other metals. Salt water conducts better than fresh.
What things corrode metal?
Corrosion of metal is caused by oxygen or oxidising substances, salty water and some medium strong acids
Why do metal corrode more quickly near the sea?
Salt water is corrosive. And there is more moisture in the air.
Can water dent or bend metal?
Under normal circumstances, water cannot dent or bend metal. However, water can cause metal to corrode or rust over time, depending on the type of metal. This corrosion weakens the metal and may eventually lead to deformation or damage.
Does lead corrode?
Lead does corrode but it certainly does not corrode as easily as iron or steel. For example in electrolysis when you put metal in the water the bubbles start to form hydrogen and oxygen, this corrodes the metal. But lead will not corrode that easily in this process. Lead may corroded by sulfuric acid; but generally lead is very resistant to corrosion.
What factors speed rusting and which factors don't?
OK rust is affected by the climate and the water that it is in. salt water is able to corrode the metal and then pond water is next.. so good luck
What are chemicals that eat away metal?
Acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid are commonly used to corrode or eat away metal surfaces. These acids react with the metal, causing it to dissolve and deteriorate over time. Additionally, some alkaline solutions like sodium hydroxide can also corrode metal surfaces.
What can you use to make metal rust?
You can use a combination of water and an oxidizing agent, such as salt or vinegar, to make metal rust. Simply soaking the metal in this solution or spraying it onto the metal and exposing it to air will initiate the rusting process.
Do acids corrode metals?
Yes. Some can only corrode soft things, and some can corrode everything. But in short, all acids can corrode something. It only gets dangerous if the acid can corrode you.
