A common metal which is highly resistant to corrosion is:
(a) iron
(b) copper
(c) aluminium
(d) magnesium

उत्तर
(c) aluminium
Aluminium is resistant to corrosion due to the formation of a thin oxide layer (aluminium oxide or Al2O3). This prevents further corrosion by creating a strong protective layer over the surface of the metal.
