Solution

The correct option is B Zinc plating
Galvanisation is the process of applying a protective zinc coating to iron or steel, to prevent rusting. The most common method is hot dip galvanizing, in which steel sections are submerged in a bath of molten zinc. Hence, zinc plating is the most durable metal plating on iron to protect against corrosion.
