During Galvanization, which metal is used for coating iron and steel objects, preventing them from rusting? Correct Answer Zinc

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Zinc.

During Galvanization, zinc is used for coating iron and steel objects, preventing them from rusting.

The following process can be used to prevent of rusting of iron: 

  1. By painting surface of an iron object, air and moisture cannot come in contact with the iron object and hence no rusting takes place,
  2. By applying grease or oil,
  3. By Galvanization, i.e. by depositing a thin layer of zinc metal on iron objects,
  4. By chrome-plating, i.e. Iron is coated with chromium,
  5. By alloying iron with carbon chromium and nickel to make stainless steel.

An iron blast furnace produces hot metal containing 95% Fe. The iron ore charged into the furnace contains 95% Fe2O3 and the rest is gangue. Assume that all the iron in the ore goes to hot metal. The amount of iron ore (in kg) required for producing 1000 kg of hot metal is (Atomic weight of Fe = 56 g mol-1 and that of Fe2O3 = 160 g mol-1)
