Kies die mees korrekte stelling. Vertaling:   Microscope lens = Mikroskoop lens; Polished = gepoleer; Etched = geëts; Cementite = sementiet; Ferrite = ferriet.

Accepted Answer

The etchant dissolves the ferrite more readily than the cementite. / 
 Die etsmiddel los die ferriet makliker op as die sementiet.

Answer

The etchant dissolves the cementite more readily than the ferrite. /  
 Die etsmiddel los die sementiet makliker op as die ferriet.

Answer

The etchant dissolves the cementite and ferrite at equal rates. /   
 Die etsmiddel los die sementiet en ferriet teen gelyke tempo op.

Answer

The etchant has no effect on the material. /  
 Die etsmiddel het geen effek op die materiaal nie.
