There are several alternatives:

* salt and water from ocean spray or road salt/water spray

* just water + oxygen from the air (dampness accelerates rusting) * fertilizers (as a dust) which contain salts other than NaCl * acids and alkalis (dust or spray)

* hydrogen sulfide or sulfur dioxide

All these examples are predicated in there being a break in the car's paint to allow wter and chemicals access to the bare metal

Is deforestation a type of pollution?

No. Deforestation is the destruction of the forests (woods) by removing (cutting down) the trees without replanting them. It is harmful to the environment but it is not a type of pollution as such. Pollution is the discharge of impurities into the air and the water.


What the effects of galvanic corrosion?

Galvanic Corrosion, is a form of Corrosion that take place when two different metal are placed in contact, or electrically connected, and an electrolyte is present. The electrolyte could be water, rain, humidity, soil or any other fluid that is a good electrolyte. The extent of Galvanic Corrosion is a function of different parameters: -type of metal -type of electrolyte -ratio of the two areas in contact


Is rusting an example of corrosion?

Yes, rusting is a specific type of corrosion that occurs on iron and its alloys when they are exposed to oxygen and moisture. This process creates iron oxide, commonly known as rust, which weakens the material over time.


What kind of reaction is the corrosion of a metal by an acid?

Corrosion is the type of reaction between metals and acids.


Define different type of corrosion and explain electrochemical theory of corrosion.how will you protect corrosion?

Types of corrosion 1. Induced corrosion due to chloride 2. Pitting 3. Corrosion due to Oxidation 4.Corrosion is due to dissimilar materials 5. Corrosion due to imbalanced electrovalency In Electro-chemical theory,when two materials of different potential are in contact with each other through electrolyte, the two materials become, one is cathode and the other anode. The ions(electrons ) passes from anode deposited on cathode. Protection methods: 1.Metallurgical method 2.Corrosion inhibitors 3 Coatings like paintings, epoxy application etc 4. Cathodic protection 5 Galvanisation 6 Balancing of of electrovalency of materials or reducing impurity 7 use of sacrificial anode

Is population a pollution?

Population could be considered a cause of pollution because the more people there are, the more waste produced and resources used, causing pollution. But no, it is not a type of pollution.


What type of air pollution could cause corrosion?

Acid rain caused by SOx and NOx in the air can (and does) cause corrosion of metals and stone (limestone and marble) as ell as concrete. Hydrogen sulfide can cause corroding of metals like iron and tarnish silver. Salt spray can corrode iron and steel and erode concrete Any material which is a powder or fume can deposit on surfaces and cause water and dew to wet the surface for a longer peiod of time - wet metals interact with oxygen and corrode faster. == ==

Does pollution cause asthma?

Yes, airways can get block as if you were smokin.It depends on the type of pollution - if the pollution is air bound then it is quite likely extended excessive exposure can leading to breathing disorders including asthma.If the pollution is in the workplace in the UK an employer is responsible to ensure employees do not contract diseases such as asthma else the employer could be liable to compensate.

Does calcium hydroxide cause rust?

No, calcium hydroxide does not cause rust. Rust is a specific type of corrosion that occurs on iron and its alloys, while calcium hydroxide is a chemical compound that does not react with iron in a way that causes rusting.


Cause of air pollution?

One type of air pollution is they release of particles into the air from burning fuel for energy . Diesel smoke is a good example of this particulate matter.


Which pollutant causes the greatest corrosion of steel structures?

Sulfur dioxide is one of the primary pollutants that can cause the greatest corrosion of steel structures. When sulfur dioxide reacts with moisture in the air, it forms sulfuric acid, which is highly corrosive to steel. This corrosion can lead to structural damage and deterioration over time.
