Which of the following methods is suitable for preventing an iron frying pan from rusting ?
Applying a coating of zinc
Applying grease
Applying paint
all of the above.
Solution
Applying a coating of zinc
(We can also apply grease and paint to prevent iron from rusting. However, in case of iron frying pan, grease and paint cannot be applied because when the pan will be heated and washed again and again, the coating of grease and paint would get destroyed.)
