Corrosion is essentially an electrochemical phenomenon. Explain the reactions occurring during corrosion of iron kept in an open atmosphere. (b) Calculate the equilibrium constant for the equilibrium reaction `Fe_((s)) + Cd_((aq))^(2+) hArr Fe_((aq))^(2+) + Cd_((s))` (Given : `E_(Cd^(2+)|Cd)^(@) = -0.40 V , E_(Fe^(2+)|Fe)^(@) = -0.44V`).
