What do you call a metal that doesn't rust?
It is resistant to corrosion. So therefore "anti-corrosion" would probably be the best definition.
What is a chemical change for a bicycle frame?
Yes, because corrosion takes place in the process.
How do you size a junction box?
There is no minimum height for junction boxes per NEC. Any use of a junction box that would be subjected to harsh conditions because of its height would have to be rated for the condition. Personally, in outdoor areas, I like to keep boxes at least 18" above grade in areas that get snow.
Why would a metal corrode more quickly in a salt water than distilled water?
In a medium of lower pH (acidic), the rate of corrosion is high. If the pH of medium is below 3 (approximately), even in absence of air severe corrosion takes place due to rapid evolution of hydrogen at cathodic areas, facilitating anodic oxidation of the metal and dissociation of corrosion product, exposing fresh metal surface for corrosion. In distilled water (pH about 7), rate of corrosion is relatively lower.
Should one use light fixtures for wet areas where minimal concentration of ammonia will be in the air?
It would be good to use corrosion resistant fixtures and airtight conduit (explosion proof) to prevent corrosion of the wires.

Why would you want to control the rate of corrosion?
You would want to control the rate of corrosion for an object in order to extend the life of that object and/or to be able to observe the corrosion in a controlled situation.
What would A cell junction found in the epithelium lining the bladder would most likely be?
tight junction

Does non ferrous metals rot?
I'm not cetrain that i would use the word rot....a more accurate word would be corrode. Cetrainly Aluminm and Zinc will corrode simply from weathering. Gold and Silver are referred to as "Noble" metals and suffer very little from corrosion.

What would cause a 2000 Chevrolet blazer's transfer case module to go bad?
Corrosion. Check connection at the module for corrosion.
Corrosion is a physical property of metals?
No, corrosion is a chemical change of the metal involved.
What function does gap junction provide?
The main function of a gap junction is to allow the transmission of electrical impulses among cells. These transmissions come from neighboring cells and they would not be able to communicate without a gap junction.
Why would battery terminal corrosion prevent a car from starting?
If there is corrosion on the terminals then you will have a bad connection that will not transfer power from the battery to the starter. It is just like disconnecting the cable. Electrical current cannot flow properly through the corrosion,
What is a chemical change for a bicycle frame?
Yes, because corrosion takes place in the process.
Can you die from vomiting?
It would be very rare, but yes, you could suffer a Mallory-Weiss tear. This is a tear of the gastro-esophageal junction that is associated with violent retching or vomiting and in rare cases might be fatal.
