RedoxReactions

INPUT

•Corrosion occurs readily on boats due to the flowof electrons out of the metals turning the metalinto ions.A corrosive free propellerA propeller that hascorroded in the water

INPUT

When two metals are submerged into anelectrolytic solution and touched together,electricity is produced by flowing electrons outof one of the metals. You can see the propellerhas lost some of its metal. To keep the metal in the propeller fromcorroding, the reactive metal of zinc is oxidizedand turned into ions, instead of the propeller.No zinc is used hereZinc was used hereElectrons leavethe zinc anodebut do not leavethe other metal.
