Which of the following is the driving force in galvanic corrosion?

Which of the following is the driving force in galvanic corrosion? Correct Answer The potential difference between the two metals

The principle driving force for current transfer and corrosion is the potential developed between the two metals. This potential difference can be altered by various factors such as conductivity of electrolyte and temperature of the electrolyte.
