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.
