Best Answer

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.

If your skin burns by hot oil and Chlorox, that's an example.

What are examples of corrosion?

Rust is one example.


Are rusting and tarnishing examples of corrosion?

cheeseballs!


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.


Why are rusting and tarnishing examples of corrosion?

Rusting and tarnishing are examples of slow oxidation, where the naturally occurring oxygen bonds with the metal. Oxidation is a form of corrosion, since oxidation removes solid matter.


What is a property in chemistry?

Examples: chemical reactivity, resistance to corrosion, flammability, oxidation, etc.


What are 2 chemical properties that most metals have?

Examples: resistance to corrosion, valence, Pauling electronegativity.


What is an example for tarnish?

Tarnishing involves oxidation on metal. Some examples include rust on pipes and coins, and corrosion on items made of silver.


More examples of chemical properties?

Examples: chemical reactivity, flammability, electronegativity, polarization of a molecule, resistance to corrosion, solubility, iodine index, pH, etc.


Different example of chemical change?

Examples of chemical changes: combustion, corrosion, fermentation, photochemical reaction, polymerization.


Why is a chemical property of matter?

Examples: - chemical reactivity - flammability - resistance to corrosion - resistance to thermal degradation etc.


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.


Why does corrosion rate of no value on localized corrosion?

in my opinion, the value of corrosion rate obtained from certain reading is generally determine general corrosion rate, regardless what type of corrosion occur on a specific surface. in localized corrosion, where only some spots on surface is exposed to corrosion and other may be covered by film and etc. From my time of study, still didn't fine any research that can determine corrosion rate of localized corrosion unless u have a really micro- instrumentation that can monitor corrosion on the localized spots..
