उत्तर
Three methods of preventing rusting of iron:
A. Galvanizing: It is a process of giving a thin coating of zinc on iron or steel to protect them from corrosion, E.g. shiny iron nails. pins etc.
B. Rusting of iron can be prevented by coating it with paint, oil, grease or varnish.
C. Tinning: In this process thin layer of tin is coated over iron objects.

Name two metals which resist corrosion due to the formation of a thin, hard and impervious layer of oxide on their surface.
Four metals P, Q, R and S are all obtained by the reduction of their oxides with carbon. Metal P is used to form a thin layer over the sheets of metal S to prevent its corrosion. Metal Q is used for electroplating tiffin boxes made of metal S whereas metal R is used in making car batteries. Metals Q and R form an alloy called solder. What are metals P, Q, R and S?
