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.

| 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. |

- How can we make aluminium articles made resistant to corrosion?
- Name the technique used to coat the aluminium articles.
