Aluminum does not corrode in the same manner as iron does, because aluminum is harder to oxidize than iron. aluminum does not react with oxygen gas. a protective layer of aluminum oxide forms on the metal surface. iron gives cathodic protection to aluminum. the electrical circuit cannot be completed on an aluminum surface.

The ozone molecule o3 has a permanent dipole moment of 1.8×10−30 cm. although the molecule is very slightly bent-which is why it has a dipole moment-it can be modeled as a uniform rod of length 2.5×10−10 m with the dipole moment perpendicular to the axis of the rod. suppose an ozone molecule is in a 8000 n/c uniform electric field. in equilibrium, the dipole moment is aligned with the electric field. but if the molecule is rotated by a small angle and released, it will oscillate back and forth in simple harmonic motion. what is the frequency f of oscillation?
