Solution

The correct option is A True
  • The process in which metals react with air or moisture and form oxide is called corrosion.
  • Due to that, a flaky substance or coating is formed over the metals. It is called rusting, and that coating is called rust.
  • But the colour of the flaky substance varies from one metal to another.
  • Corrosion iron gets a brown coating, copper gets a green coating, and silver gets a black coating.

Hence, the given statement is True.
