Option 3 : Applying a coating of zinc

  • Greasing prevents rusting as it stops the oxidation of iron-based products and paint delays corrosion of metals and thereby prevents rusting but here we cannot apply grease and paint to the frying pan because when frying pan heated and washed again and again, grease or paint applied would get destroyed.
  • Therefore Coating of zinc is applied as Zinc is more reactive than iron and thus when applied on iron, it oxidizes before iron thereby saving iron from getting rusted.
