उत्तर
Corrosion of metals can be prevented by the following methods:
- Applying coatings: Metals are coated with oil, grease, varnish, or paint to prevent direct contact with air and moisture.
- Metal plating: Metals are plated with a non-corroding metal. For example, zinc plating (galvanization) is used to protect iron from rusting.

No chemical reaction takes place when granules of a rusty-brown solid A are mixed with the powder of another solid B. However, when the mixture is heated, a reaction takes place between its components. One of the products C is a metal and settles down in the molten state while the other product D floats over it.
