Question

The two metals involved in the galvanization process are

• A. iron and copper
• B. iron and zinc
• C. zinc and copper
• D. copper an aluminium

Answer 1

The correct option is C

zinc and copper

Explanation:

(C) Galvanization: It is the process of applying a protective zinc or copper coating on the surface of iron or steel, to prevent rusting. This is because, when the iron is left in the open environment, due to its contact with air(oxygen) and moisture, it becomes corroded.

To prevent them from this corrosion, the coating of Zn or Cu is done. Hence, for galvanization two metals involved are zinc and copper.

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
