The correct option is D

All the above


Corrosion is a natural and chemical process that occurs between a metal and oxygen in the presence of moisture.

  1. The active metals easily lose electrons and get corroded. For example, magnesium and aluminum.
  2. Noble metals that do not lose electrons easily do not corrode easily. For example, gold and silver, and platinum do not spoil easily.

Therefore Gold, Silver, and Platinum are noble metals.
