Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. Carbon steel and other alloys need certain elements to resist high-temp corrosion. Chromium is one that comes to mind, but I'm not 100% sure if that's the only factor. I'll have to review my notes on this topic.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know chromium is important for corrosion resistance, but I can't remember if it's specifically for high-temperature corrosion. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'm pretty sure the answer is chromium, since that's a key alloying element that improves high-temperature corrosion resistance.
EL

I'm a bit confused by this question. Is it asking about the specific element that determines the resistance, or is it asking about all the factors that contribute to high-temp corrosion resistance? I want to make sure I understand what they're looking for before I answer.
