Name any three objects (or structures) which are gradually damaged by the corrosion of iron and steel.
The corrosion of copper produces a ______ coating of basic copper carbonate on its surface.
What is corrosion?
What are the special properties of stainless steel?
A metal X which is resistant to corrosion is produced by the electrolysis of its molten oxide whereas another metal Y which is also resistant to corrosion is produced by the reduction of its oxide with carbon. Metal X can be used in powder form in thermite welding whereas metal Y is used in making cathodes of ordinary dry cells.
- Name the metals X and Y.
- Which of the two metals is more reactive: X or Y?
- Name one ore or metal X. Also write its chemical formula.
- Name one ore of metal Y. Also write its chemical formula.
- Name one alloy of metal X and one alloy of metal Y.
