Iron and steel rusting is an example of corrosion. Copper pitting or the green patina one sees on copper roofs are also examples of corrosion. Stress Cracking is also considered an example of corrosion.

Can you call the corrosion of all metals as rusting?

No. Rust (iron oxide) only occurs in metals containing iron. A couple examples of different types of corrosion are galvanic corrosion and chloride pitting corrosion.


What are some examples of corrosion in chemical equation?

Rusting of iron: Fe + O2 + H2O → Fe2O3•nH2O Formation of copper(II) oxide: 4Cu + O2 → 2Cu2O Corrosion of aluminum: 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3 Corrosion of silver: 4Ag + O2 + 2H2S → 2Ag2S + 2H2O

When is corrosion useful?

Corrosion can be useful for creating materials that have specific properties, such as rust on iron that can act as a protective barrier. In some cases, controlled corrosion can be used to achieve desired aesthetics in art and architecture. Additionally, corrosion processes can be harnessed for energy generation, such as in fuel cells.

What are some methods in minimizing corrosion among metals?

Metals are usually treated with a coating that helps minimize the forming of corrosion. Steel is treated to galvanize it from developing rust, which is a type of corrosion. Electroplating is another way to minimize corrosion in metals.
