← ScienceWhich outcome can result from continued Galvanic corrosion?
A)Formation of new ionic compounds✓
B)Passivation layer thickening
C)Electrode redox potential reversal
D)Increased grain boundary diffusion
💡 Explanation
Continued galvanic corrosion erodes the anode through ion transfer via oxidation, leading to formation of new ionic compounds (rust), because electron transfer drives the corrosion, therefore compound form rather than passivation; this occurs elsewhere. Other conditions produce the other reactions.
