Rust and Corrosion Kit
Product Details & Documents
This visually striking lab clearly illustrates the processes of rusting, corrosion and cathode inhibition. Iron metal will rust in the presence of air and water, a process that accelerates in ocean water.
- Developed by Ray Steigvilas
- Grades 7 to 12
Yet, in the presence of another metal (such as magnesium) the nails will not rust for a very long time as the magnesium sacrifices itself by supplying electrons to the iron nail. Eventually the magnesium will vanish, and a white solid will form on the bottom of the petri dish. Includes materials for five student groups and instructions.
