Which outcome accelerates iron corrosion when dissolved salts increase?

A)Conductivity increases iron redox rate
B)Passivation layer strengthens unexpectedly quickly
C)Surface tension inhibits oxygen transport
D)Temperature stabilizes protective oxide layers

💡 Explanation

Dissolved NaCl increases electrolytic conductivity, therefore the **electrochemical corrosion** process accelerates because the flow of ionic charge carriers supports faster electron transfer from iron to oxygen, rather than oxide layer formation.
