Two students decided to investigate the effect of water and air on iron object under identical experimental conditions. They measured the mass of each object before placing it partially immersed in 10 ml of water. After a few days, the object were removed, dried and their masses were measured. The table shows their results.
| Student | Object | Mass of Object before Rusting in g |
Mass of the coated object in g |
| A | Nail | 3.0 | 3.15 |
| B | Thin plate | 6.0 | 6.33 |
What might be the reason for the varied observations of the two students?
In a set up the students coated iron nails with zinc metal and noted that, iron nails coated with zinc prevents rusting. They also observed that zinc initially acts as a physical barrier, but an extra advantage of using zinc is that it continues to prevent rusting even if the layer of zinc is damaged. Name this process of rust prevention and give any two other methods to prevent rusting.
