Heya
Corrosion is the eating away of the top layer of metal due to the attack of atmospheric gases and moisture.
This phenomenon has both protective and destruction result.
Protective- When Magnesium combines with Oxygen to form MgO which forms a thin layer preventing further oxidation of the metal
Destructive- Take for example, the case of Rusting. Which, by all means, is rather a damaging phenomenon.
