Wow...I mean you explained it more interestingly and accurately than my University Lecturer and the usual 1kg of notes. You made me understand this, rather than remember ionic equations. You are a star man!

Thanks so much. This is a better explanation than I have found in 3 hours of research.

thank you! after so long, this guy finally explains it! thank u dude. take care

that is the video ive been looking for. Thanks for great explanation

Yes quite the informative video, the information was presented marvellously. Perfectly outlining one of natures quintessential chemical reaction. Thank you, once again my intelligible fellow.

I'm not sure what kind of metal they use for offshore oil rigs and submarines and such but that stuff doesn't rust a bit

Hi, nice video. I have a question for you. Is it possible to observe release of hydrogen bubbles even slightly during corrosion of steel in salt water, or this requires to add a small amount of acid (for example Hydrogen Cloride) to lower the pH ??

Thank you for the lesson 😊

Great video. One would be amazed at some of the ferrous its i ha e found along the florida gulf coasts

its 4 am, i should be watching GoT instead im watching a British/Aussie asian dude explaining something. nice

Great explanation!! 👍👍

The corrosion of steel in a neutral pH solution is controlled by the oxygen reduction reaction, NOT the H ion reduction reaction. If you want to prove it. Boil the water to remove the oxygen and see that the corrosion rate decreases considerably, even though H+ and OH- ions are still present. I am afraid your video is misleading.

Can you provide me with a video that is accurate?

Thanks🙏

so what is the chemical reaction for iron rusting in salt water?

Excellent Video. Curious, what role does the Cl- play here?

Clear explanation, thanks!

Very well explained. Thank you

Oh my god, you are the messiah in disguise, you explained this is an easy and intuitive way. Thankyou so much. Although I do have one question does electronegavity play any part in the rate of reaction?

hello, helpful video. However, the idea that Na+ and Cl- accept es from the oxidizing Fe , swim around and transfer them to H+ ions isn't very convincing. Is there an alternative ( more in depth ) explanation????

mekky3765 Hi Mekky, thanks for your question. Every other source I can find all agree that the salt increases the conductivity of the water, enabling the electrons to transfer more easily in this redox reaction process. For more details on the mechanism here are two links: corrosion-doctors.org/Experiments/rust-chemistry.htm and www.chemicalformula.org/chemistry-help/corrosion

So Na+ accepts electrons but doesn't get reduced? and Cl- swims around carrying an electron from the oxidation of Fe?

Hi, Im Planning to create a time capsule and i want it to put in the middle of pacific ocean. can you suggest me a container that is available in this time. that can stand corrosion and avoiding salt water to penetrate inside.. for a maximum of at least 200 years. Thanks.

I hope this message reaches you. I absolutely need to know which metal should I use to make steel rust faster in seawater through galvanic corrosion. I hope I've asked this question correctly and also I don't know how to privately message you so if there's a way you could privately message me or let me know if you make a video about this would you please do so? Thank you

Not much you can do other than to add more salt to the water or maybe some hydrogen peroxide or acid.

Quite quintessential

Would it be right to call NaCl a catalyst here?

Sir, do saltwater hho will rust Carborator and engine piston from inside and demage it? How to avoid this rusting?

Why doesn't the sodium deposit into the iron when it takes an electron?

Good information thanks for sharing. I like the morbid toaster in the bath tub reference you just casually dropped in there.

What is the finally chemical equation for the corrosion of iron in water?

In this instance would it be correct to describe the salt as a catalyst?

this video was really helpful to me :)

No worries :) It's also how CO2 from the atmosphere gets absorbed in oceans - or CO2 gets put into soda/soft drinks. With enough pressure you can force more gas to dissolve (and vice versa).

How does giving electrons to H+ make rust? Wouldn't this just make the Fe go to Fe 2- and H+ go to H- and nothing else?

@VincentJanNicer

Hello, your second question is wrong. To answer your first question, rust is the Oxidized or "more positive" form of Fe. When Fe gives electrons, i.e. loses negative charges, it becomes more positive, thus making more rust. That is, from Fe to Fe2+ (NOT 2- as you mentioned in your second question)

How long would a vehicle take to rust if salt was left on it from over the winter?

@JohnDoe-uq3mx

Vehicular rust is caused only by the iron building up an electrical charge, since the salt is helping with all of that. Just like a car battery.

If i use a steel rod will it be the same?

@Anglesandacid

+Aiden Hijuelos It'll be slower due to less surface area. You'll have to test it before using it as a demo in class. Rate can depend on surface area and concentration in this case, so it depends on what kind of rod and what kind of concentration of salt you use.

Yes I've found the same case with woodworking tools (made of steel). I suspect it's because our sweat is salty, and the oils from our skin might be slightly acidic too.
