Answer:

The iron sheet is galvanized with zinc to prevent it from rusting. Zinc also protects the steel by acting as a sacrificial layer. The rust does take hold on the surface of galvanized iron sheet; the zinc will get corroded first. This allows the zinc to prevent rust from reaching the iron sheet.

Hope it helps
