उत्तर
- The method is called electroplating.
- Explanation:
a. Electroplating is the process in which a less reactive metal is coated on a more reactive metal by electrolysis.
b. It protects the object made of reactive metal from corrosion. c. It also improves the appearance of the object. - Silver plated spoons, gold plated ornaments are examples of electroplating.

Ships suffer a lot of damage though they are painted.
| A process of forming a thick oxide of aluminium when aluminium is exposed to air. This coat makes it resistant to corrosion. Resistance can be improved by making a layer of oxide thinker. In this technique, the aluminium article is the anode, and the electrolyte is sulphuric acid. The anode reaction results in the formation of a black-coloured film of aluminium oxide on the anode. By putting appropriate dyes in the electrolytic solution, both coloured surface with the decorative finish is achieved. Kitchen articles like anodised such as pressure cookers, pans and frames of sliding windows are applications of this technique. |
