Question

Small anodic area will result in intense corrosion

Answer 1

Answer:

• The rate of the corrosion is greatly influenced by the relative sizes of cathodic and anodic areas.

• If the metal has smaller the anodic area and larger the cathodic area exposed to corrosive atmosphere, more intense and faster is the corrosion occurring at anodic area because at anode oxidation takes place and electrons are liberated .
