उत्तर १
When the surface of a metal is attacked by air, moisture or any other substance around it, the metal is said to corrode and the phenomenon is known as corrosion.
उत्तर २
Corrosion is an electrochemical process in which a metal is oxidised to a metal oxide or another salt of the metal by losing electrons to oxygen or another electronegative element, forming a coating on the metal surface.
