What is corrosion?
1
A chemical reaction involving a metal changing
from an element to a compound
3
Magnesium provides iron with sacrificial
protection. In which direction do electrons flow?
2
From magnesium to iron
4
Which metal is used to galvanise iron?
3
zinc
5
Which metal RUSTS?
4
iron
6
Give an example of how iron can be physically
protected.
5
Paint, grease, tin-plate, electroplate,
galvanising, coat with plastic
7
How does a physical barrier protect iron against
rusting?
6
Barrier to water and air (oxygen)
8
Which iron ion is formed when iron rusts?
7
Fe2
9
What name is given to the coating of iron with
zinc?
8
galvanising
10
Chromium plated steel rusts quickly when
scratched. Compared to iron is chromium more
reactive or less reactive.
9
Less reactive
11
Why does salt speed up corrosion?
10
Salt is an electrolyte
12
How does salt and acid rain affect corrosion?
11
Speeds it up
13
What is the test for Fe2 ions?
12
Ferroxyl indicator turns blue
14
What two conditions are required for rusting to
take place?
13
Water and oxygen
15
What type of reaction takes place when a metal
corrodes?
14
oxidation
