  • sacrificial anode?
    Piece of metal (connected to another metal) that's more easily oxidised/ corroded than the metal bring protected from corrosion
    • oxidises preferentially
    • does not react with cold water
  • what would be a sacrificial anode for iron
    A metal below Fe
    eg) Cr, Zn, Mn, Al, Mg
    • more positive E for oxidation / or more negative E for reduction, when compared to Fe
