    The document discusses corrosion and how it affects engineering materials, especially metals. It states that corrosion reduces the life of materials and increases the cost of structures by chemically harming their properties. Examples given include steel bridges needing regular repainting to be protected from rust. To resist corrosion, various metals like stainless steel and alloys of copper and nickel have been developed. Engineers can also protect metal surfaces in many ways, such as painting them.

    "CORROSION"

    ..

    Corrosion attacks a11engineering materials, especially metaIs. Corrosion is any chemicaJ action which harms the properties of materials. It reduces the .life of a material and increases the cost 01' a structure. For example, in a steel bridge must be repainted regularly to protect it frorn rust. Various metals have therefore been c\eveloped to resist corrosion. Among them are the stainless steels. When it is necessary, alloys made from copper and nickeJ are also corrosion resistant. For example money metal, is resistant to both fresh and salt water corrosion. Finally engineers can protect the surfaces of the metals in many different ways. One of the most common methods is to paint them. Parte "A" Responda las siguientes preguntas relacionadas al texto en espaol. 1.. Who might protect the surfaces ofthe metals.?
