Rust can be avoided by using a procedure called cathodic protection. A metal like zinc or magnesium, which give up electrons to oxygen more quickly than iron does, is linked to the iron that has to be shielded. The iron won't corrode in this case, only the so-called sacrificial cathode.

By providing a highly active metal that may function as an anode and provide free electrons, the cathodic protection approach for steel maintains the metal. The active metal sacrifices its ions to introduce these free electrons, which prevents the corrosion of the less active steel. The simplest way to use CP is to join the metal that needs to be protected with another metal that will operate as the electrochemical cell's anode and is more susceptible to corrosion.

What term best defines the process that occurs when nuclei combine to produce a nucleus with more mass?
bekas [8.4K]
I just answered your other question and wrote all the definitions of the terms. I would say this is probably refering to Fusion because you are fusing together more nuclei into one nucleus. Fusion= bringing separate things into one entity.

How many moles of neon atoms are there in a neon sign that has 2.4 * 20^ 24 atoms of neon? *
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

4 moles of neon

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of neon = ?

Number of atoms of neon = 2.4×10²⁴ atoms

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For given neon atoms:

1 mol =  6.022 × 10²³ atoms

2.4×10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.4×10¹ mol = 4 mol
