Best answer
Right answer is (c) Electrochemical corrosion

Easiest explanation: According to Electrolytic theory or Electrochemical corrosion, the corrosion takes place due to chemical action in combination with electrolysis. It takes place at or near the room temperature when the metal comes into contact with moisture in contact with aqueous solution of salt, acid or bases.
