what is rusting how it can be prevented
Answers
Whenever you get iron, water and oxygen together, you get rust. So the best way to prevent it is to keep them apart; that's what paint does, or the spray-on wax and oil coatings that the car protection companies sell. Keep your tools dry; wipe down your bike after a ride; keep the water away and it can't rust.
Answer:
Explanation:
rusting is defind as the process of slow eating away of iron due to the atack of oxygen and moisture on its surface
There are many ways to prevent rusting of Iron:
Galvanization
Galvanization is a process in which the Iron sheets are coated with a layer of Zinc which prevents rusting. Zinc gets oxidized more readily than Iron. So, the Iron remains protected.
Painting
Painting the Iron surface will create a barrier between the Iron and the atmosphere, which will protect the Iron from rusting.
Electroplating
Iron sheets can be electroplated with a metal which is more reactive than Iron, so that instead of the Iron getting oxidized, the other metal gets oxidized (because it is more reactive).
