(temp. etc...) B. concentration cells (oxygen, temp, etc.) In an oxygen concentration cell, what is the anode? (i.e. the area with more or less oxygen?) In a metal ion cell, which area is the anode (i.e. the area with the greater of lower concentration)? C. Anaerobic bacteria (MIC) Absence of oxygen, depolarizer polarization a. corrosion current reduces with polarization b. polarization increases with CP current applied c. Occurs at surface of both anode and cathode. shielding a. shorted casings b. proximity of other structures c. reinforced concrete amphoteric materials corrode at low and high pH on potential native + polarization + IR drop polarized potential (off) native + polarization kirchoff's laws [Show More]
