I agree: I couldn't find where it came from, but, as far as it goes, the latest version (with the typos corrected) is true. The point is that it doesn't apply in the real world, where sulfate and, especially, chloride ions, and others, are present. For example, copper corrodes in the presence of chloride ions, which you wouldn't expect from the table. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
