Zinc is more reactive than iron, and loses electrons more easily. The outer layer of Zn reacts with atmospheric oxygen to form ZnO (zinc oxide) which is stronger than Zn. Thus, even when the Zn coating is broken, the material is coated with a stronger substance (ZnO) which helps it to prevent rusting.
