Re: Water damage... causesChemistry geeking follows...According to my handbook of chemistry and physics the solubility of O2 in water at 25 degrees celsius is given by the mole fraction of 2.29 x 10 -5. Assuming 1 L of solution that corresponds to 0.00127 moles of O2 which would have the capacity to convert 0.14 grams of Fe to FeO, or it would take all of the oxygen in 7L of water to convert 1 g of Fe to FeO.That is a best (worse) case scenerio where oxygen in dissolved in pure water. Adding electrolytes actually reduces the solubility of oxygen in water.
