Question

Electroplating is used to protect an inferior metal by coating it with a superior metal.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

One of the fine applications of electroplating technique is to protect an inferior metal (that gets affected by environmental conditions easily) by coating it with a superior metal (that does not get affected by environmental conditions easily). For example, iron (an inferior metal) is coated with copper (a superior metal) to make it last longer without getting rusted.
