Corrosion Assignment I

This document contains questions for a module assignment on corrosion. It asks why iron corrodes faster than aluminum despite iron's lower position in the electrochemical series. It also asks why corrosion occurs when steel pipes are connected to copper plumbing and asks the learner to define the terms "passivity", "sacrificial anode protection", and "impressed current cathode protection". Finally, it asks the learner to explain the various factors that influence the rate of corrosion.
