That's a tough one. I've been thinking about it off and on and I don't know how to approach it.

It could be an acid, and it could be a base. Maybe it's a strong oxidizing or reducing reagent. I don't know...

I wonder what the exact definition of "corrosive" is?

According to dictionary.com, it looks like a corrosive substance is any chemical substance that chemically destroys or eats away another substance.
