Question

State the relation between reduction electrode potential of metal electrode and its tendency toward corrosion

Answer 1

A metal with greater electropositive character such as Na, K, Ca have greater strength to reduce that is greater reduction potential. They are very reactive and so corrode easily with air and water. So greater Reduction Potential greater is the corrosion.
