Solution

The correct option is C Allowing the metal surface to interact with moisture
Rusting occurs when iron comes in contact with moisture. It can be prevented by applying a coating of paint, powder coating or coating done by anodizing. An exposure of metal to moisture will lead to rusting rather than preventing it.
