Galvanization:
The process of coating Zinc layer on substances made copper or steel or other metals, which gets corrosion when exposed moist air for long time is called galvanization.
Using galvanization process prevention of corrosion is possible on the metal surface.
Ex: Iron Bridge can be protected from rusting by galvanizing the iron using zinc protects.

Electroplating:
It is the most common application of the chemical effect of electric current is electroplating. Electroplating is done in industries to have an anti-reactive coating on the parts of machines so that they do not react with the raw material, to have an anti-corrosive coating for the machines so that they do not get corroded, and a heat-resistive coating for parts like boilers to resist the heat produced by the machinery.
Gold plating is one of the most common applications of electroplating in ornament-making. In electroplating, the solution gets dissociated into its respective ions. The positive ions are called cations, and the negative ions are called anions. The current in the solution is due to the flow of these ions. The anions move towards the anode, and the cations move towards the cathode. The cations are converted into atoms at the cathode and form a layer on it, called as electroplating. The process of electroplating is used for plating parts of vehicles with Nickel and Chromium, which protects them from corrosion.
Hope it may help you!!!!

electroplating is the act of plating metal onto another metal by hydrolysis in order to prevent corrosion, to purify metals, to separate metals for quantitative analysis while galvanizing is placing a thin layer of zinc on a ferrous material to protect the underlying surface from rust
