Answer 2

The answer is (C) oxidation.

Corrosion is a type of oxidation reaction. Corrosion occurs for various reactive metals like iron, silver, etc. It is a process that is naturally occurring. The metal when exposed to moisture and air, oxidizes to form oxides, hydroxides, sulfates. The most common example of corrosion in daily life is rusting of iron. Corrosion leads to a decrease in the strength of the metal.

Some methods to prevent corrosion are:

• Painting: If we paint the surface of the metal then the surface is not in direct contact with the air and hence corrosion can be prevented.
• Galvanization: This is when an iron article is covered by another metal such as zinc which upon coming in contact with air forms a protective oxide layer that prevents the corrosion of iron.
