34A (9) Destroying by chemical action
Answer seems to be corrosive. Isn't tense wrong? Corrodes would be correct?

It looks OK as a synonym of corrosive is corroding/destroying adjective: corrosive
1.
tending to cause corrosion.
"the corrosive effects of salt water"
synonyms: caustic, corroding, eroding, erosive, abrasive, biting, etc

Good point. Thanks Eirlys
