← ScienceWhich outcome accelerates iron corrosion when dissolved salts increase?
A)Conductivity increases iron redox rate✓
B)Passivation layer strengthens unexpectedly quickly
C)Surface tension inhibits oxygen transport
D)Temperature stabilizes protective oxide layers
💡 Explanation
Dissolved NaCl increases electrolytic conductivity, therefore the **electrochemical corrosion** process accelerates because the flow of ionic charge carriers supports faster electron transfer from iron to oxygen, rather than oxide layer formation.
