a type of corrosion but the term is restricted to iron or products made from it. Iron is easily prone to rusting making its surface rough. Chemically‚ rust is a hydrated ferric oxide. Rusting‚ an electrochemical mechanism: Rusting may be explained by an electrochemical mechanism. In the presence of moist air containing dissolved oxygen or carbon dioxide‚ the commercial iron behaves as if composed of small electrical cells. At anode of cell‚ iron passes into solution as

Mayceemae M. Barnuevo CHEM 17.1 13L Group 1 February 7‚ 2014 February 19‚ 2014 Exercise 12 SOME INVESTIGATIONS ON THE CORROSION OF IRON I. Introduction Metals undergo natural destruction that allows a spontaneous deteriorating reaction where they return to their original state from where they are obtained upon contact with the surrounding‚ particularly when reacted to oxygen. Such phenomenon is known as corrosion (Zumdahl‚ 1998). This leads the surface of the materials to rust in due time. Usually

Q.1: what did Churchill mean in May 1945 by the term “Iron Curtain”? A.1: When Churchill stated “An Iron Curtain is being drawn upon their front.” He means that during 1945 when the war was over‚ he was talking about an imaginary line drawn between communism in the East and the democratic governments in the West.
