Construct the Evans diagram for the corrosion of zinc in a hydrochloric acid solution with a pH = 1 and a Zn²+ concentration of 2X10 M. The cathodic (B.) and anodic Tafel slope (B.) are 0.12 and 0.15 V/decade, respectively. The exchange current densities for the cathodic and anodic reactions are in, H₂=10* and i Zn-2x100 A/cm², respectively. Calculate the corrosion potential (Ecorr) and the corrosion current (ico).
