If the zinc coating is broken, the galvanized object remains protected against rusting because zinc is more reactive

Zinc is more reactive than iron, and loses electrons more easily. The outer layer of zinc of any galvanized material, reacts with the atmospheric oxygen to form Zinc Oxide (ZnO), which is stronger than Zinc.
