notochord

The notochord lies between the dorsal nerve cord and the digestive tract. It provides stiffness to counterbalance the pull of muscles.

Calculate the corrosion current density of an iron rod having a surface area of 15 cm², immersed in an acid solution (pH=3) with a temperature of 50°C. The concentration of iron ions (Fe²⁺) in the solution is 0.1 M, and the standard reduction potential of iron is -0.44 V. The Tafel slope obtained experimentally is 0.12 V/decade. Use the Tafel equation to calculate the corrosion current density (in A/cm²) of the iron rod.

A metal rod of 3 cm diameter and 20 cm length is placed in a solution of hydrochloric acid with a pH of 2 at 25°C. The metal has a critical pitting temperature of 40°C and a standard electrode potential of -0.44V. Assuming that the rod is polarized to a potential of -0.50V, what is the corrosion current density (in mA/cm²) of the metal in the given environment?
