Define Corrosion The deterioration of a substance, usually a metal from a reaction with its environment
What is passivation? A layer of oxides formed on the surface of a metal that provides corrosion protection.
What is an example of passivation? Stainless Steel
What are the elements of a corrosion cell? Anode, Cathode, Metallic Pathway, Electrolyte
Describe what happens at the anode. The metal dissolves into the electrolyte
What is the function of the electrolyte? Allows the passage of ions to connect the corrosion cell
What is the function of the metallic pathway? Allows the flow of electrons to connect the corrosion cell
What is the galvanic series? A listing of metals in order of reactivity (more or less noble) in seawater at 25 C
