How to Prepare Notes on Corrosion, EMF Series, and Fossil Fuels?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a first-year electronics engineering student seeking resources for exam preparation on topics including corrosion, EMF series, and fuel classification. Recommendations for studying corrosion include specific websites that provide comprehensive information on theories, inhibition, and prevention methods. For the EMF series, particularly the Galvanic Series, several online resources are suggested, emphasizing that the order may vary in different environments. The conversation also touches on the classification of fuels, outlining types such as solid, liquid, gas, and oxygenated fuels, with a link to a government resource on fossil fuels. Overall, the responses provide a range of useful websites and insights to aid in the student's exam preparation.

Hi Guys!

im a student of electronics engineering (1st year). I have to prepare notes for my exams about the following topics. Please recommend me some websites from where i can prepare these notes.

1) Corrosion (Theories, Inhibition and Prevention)
2) EMF Series
3) Types of Fuels, Classification of Fossil Fuels


I would be very thankful to you for this act of kindness.

Thanks a lot and Good Bye
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
you would probably be better off, referring to the engineering subforum
 
For information on Corrosion try these sites -

I think by EMF series, you are referring to Galvanic Series, for which you can search with Google, but here are some examples -

Note: The order may change in different environments.

As for fuel classification - I imagine that it would have to do with solid (coal), low pressure liquids (petroleum distillates, e.g. gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, . . .), pressurized liquids/gases (e.g. propane, butane, LNG), and gases (Natural gas - mostly methane, and some ethane), and oxygenated fuels (e.g. ethanol).

Try this - http://www.doe.gov/engine/content.do?BT_CODE=FOSSILFUELS

or search Google for "fossil fuel"

thanks a lot u all!
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
