What is the corrosion rate of iron in a 0.1 M HCl (hydrochloric acid) solution at room temperature (25°C) if it loses 5 grams of mass after being immersed in the solution for 2 hours?

To calculate the corrosion rate of iron in a 0.1 M HCl solution, we need to follow these steps:1. Determine the surface area of the iron sample.2. Calculate the mass loss per unit area.3. Convert the mass loss per unit area to corrosion rate in terms of mils per year  mpy  or millimeters per year  mm/yr .However, we don't have enough information to determine the surface area of the iron sample. If you can provide the dimensions of the iron sample, we can proceed with the calculation.
