Is there correlation between Nernst equation and Pourbaix Diagram. Which one is better to determine corrosion rate /corrosion mechanism which probably occur in material?

Thanks and Regards,

Corrosion is an interesting field, with nearly endless pits of quicksand to sink into.
Just remember, thermodynamics will tell you if a reaction is possible, but without know the rates you have no idea if it will actually happen.

I couldn't pass it up ...
The alternate is to fall into a crevice.

That would be very unpHortunate.
