Brass Battery Terminal vs Lead

Zinc is a cheaper and more plentiful metal than brass, so it is often used as a cheaper alternative to brass. However, zinc is not as strong as brass and it is a poorer conductor of electricity. In addition, zinc is more susceptible to corrosion than brass. For these reasons, brass is generally considered to be a better choice for battery ...Web

Comparing Strengths of Oxidants and Reductants

Solution. We can solve the problem in one of two ways: (1) compare the relative positions of the four possible reductants with that of the Ag 2 S/Ag couple in Table 1 or (2) compare E° for each species with E° for the Ag 2 S/Ag couple (−0.69 V). A The species in Table 1 are arranged from top to bottom in order of increasing reducing strength.Web
