Answer:
1) Corrosion is a natural process that converts a refined metal into a more chemically stable form such as oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide. It is the gradual destruction of materials by chemical and/or electrochemical reaction with their environment.
2) Metals and Non-metals. Name two metals which corrode easily and two metals which do not corrode readily. Metals which corrode easily are: iron, copper . Metals which do not corrode are: gold, platinum.
3) Aluminium is a highly reactive metal, yet it is used to make utensils for cooking. why. ... This is because aluminium reacts with oxygen present in air to form a thin layer of aluminium oxide. This oxide layer is very stable and prevents further reaction of aluminium with oxygen.
4) The oxygen atoms bond with iron atoms, resulting in the formation of iron oxides. This weakens the bonds between the iron atoms in the object/structure. The reaction of the rusting of iron involves an increase in the oxidation state of iron, accompanied by a loss of electrons. ... Iron(II) oxide or ferrous oxide.

I copied it from Google, honest!
Corrosion is a natural process that converts a refined metal into a more chemically stable form such as oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide. It is the gradual destruction of materials (usually a metal) by chemical and/or electrochemical reaction with their environment. Gold and platinum don't corrode easily.
