प्रश्न
Name two metals which resist corrosion due to the formation of a thin, hard and impervious layer of oxide on their surface.
उत्तर
Aluminium and zinc are two metals that resist corrosion due to the formation of a thin, hard and impervious layer of oxide on their surface. Aluminium and zinc form tough layers of aluminium oxide and zinc oxide by reacting with air.

A process of forming a thick oxide of aluminium when aluminium is exposed to air. This coat makes it resistant to corrosion. Resistance can be improved by making a layer of oxide thinker. In this technique, the aluminium article is the anode, and the electrolyte is sulphuric acid. The anode reaction results in the formation of a black-coloured film of aluminium oxide on the anode. By putting appropriate dyes in the electrolytic solution, both coloured surface with the decorative finish is achieved. Kitchen articles like anodised such as pressure cookers, pans and frames of sliding windows are applications of this technique. |
