Which consequence results when deicing salts permeate a bridge deck?

💡 Explanation

Corrosion occurs due to chloride ion diffusion, accelerating oxidation through the **electrochemical reaction**. Water and ions promote electron transfer, causing iron to oxidize, therefore the steel weakens structurally rather than remaining intact under stress with a passivated oxide layer.
