Abstract

The surface reactions of copper and silver with benzene solutions of sulphur have been studied. In the first case the rate of corrosion is high and corrosion takes place by pitting, giving porous films that easily scale off. However, the reaction of silver is much slower and yields coherent films showing interference colours; the kinetic law is linear with time and the experimental energy of activation is rather high, ΔHr* = 20·6 kcal/mole.
