What metal from the list below does not corrode ?

• Iron

• Steel

• Gold

• Magnesium

The diagram shows mechanism of rust formation.

Choose the correct statement:

• an iron atom release two electrons to form an iron(II) ion

• an iron(II) ion receives two electron from an iron atom

• an oxygen molecules receives two electrons to form hydroxide ion

• four hydroxide ions are formed when two water molecules receive four electrons

During rusting, the iron block also works as a voltaic cell.

Which of the following statements explain this

• there is water present

• metal iron is present

• iron atom loses electrons to oxygen and water

• iron block is corroded when in contact with oxygen and water

Diagram shows a voltaic cell on the iron block during rusting.

which of the following reaction occurs at cathode?

• Fe --> Fe²⁺ + 2e

• Fe²⁺ + 2e --> Fe

• O₂ + 2H₂O + 4e --> 4OH^-

• 4OH^- --> O₂ + 2H₂O + 4e
