    Assignment 1

    1. Discuss the difference between chemical and electrochemical reactions. 2. Derive the Nernst Equation. 3. From thermodynamic data, calculate the tendency for corrosion to occur in the following metal-electrolyte systems. (Assume standard state for all systems). For each case, write the overall cell reaction indicating the spontaneous direction -Tin in hydrocloric acid -Cooper in sulfuric acid -Cobalt in a mixture of hydrocloric and sulfuric acids 4. Write Electrochemical equations for the oxidation and reduction processes which occur during: a) The corrosion of aluminum by air-free sulfuric acid b) Corrosion of iron in aerated sulfuric acid containing ferric sulfate c) Corrosion of copper in aerated sulfuric acid containing ferric sulfate d) Corrosion of nickel in seawater e) Corrosion of iron in air-free ferric chloride solution f) The uniform corrosion of a 50% iron-chromium alloy in aerated hydrocloric acid
