What is the base metal for galvanised iron pipe?
The base metal is iron - the active metal is zinc (galvanized)
Iron can be galvanised by coating it with zinc this can protect the iron by stopping it from rusting?
Zinc has a greater resistance to corrosion than iron does, however it will still eventually corrode away, leaving the iron surface exposed. Its main purpose is to prolong the resistance of iron by rusting instead of it.
Why are roofing nails zinc coated?
You don't want stuff falling off your roof, so you don't want the nails to rust. Zinc, unlike other metals, will not rust, so you wrap the nail with a coat of zinc to prevent rusting.
Does electrolysis occur between aluminum and galvanised iron?
Yes, Aluminum is more electrically active than both zinc and iron. It will become the cathode in the electrochemical reaction.
The galvanised articles are prevented from rusting even if the zinc coating is broken .why?
A galvanized substance is that which has been coated with a layer of zinc to delay corrosion.It does this by the zinc getting corroded itself,instead of the substance. The outer layer of zinc of any galvanized material, reacts with the atmospheric oxygen to form Zinc Oxide (ZnO), which is stronger than Zinc. Thus, even if the outer layer of zinc undergoes corrosion, the material is getting coated with a stronger substance (ZnO), and thus is better able to resist corrosion.
What is the name of zinc when it cover's iron?
galvanised
Will a galvanised nail rust in vinigar?
Yes, they will rust due to zinc.
What is the difference between galvanised and alkanized?
Galvanised = metal (iron, steels) protected with a layer of zinc Alkanized = water or a solution with a pH greater than 7
What is galvanised tubes?
Galvanized tubes are steel tubes that are coated with zinc to protect them from rusting.
How is steel galvanised?
Steel is put in a pool of hot zinc at about 460˚ Celsius (860˚ Fahrenheit).
What is the base metal for galvanised iron pipe?
The base metal is iron - the active metal is zinc (galvanized)
What is a watering can made of?
they are normally formed from plastics or galvanised steel (steel that is coated in zinc to prevent it rusting)
Does magnet attracts zinc?
no...only magnetic materials can be used as electromagnet...zinc is not a magnetic material

Why are water pipes galvanised?
To control rusting. Galvanizing means that a layer of zinc metal is placed on top of steel. Zinc forms a protective layer that keeps the steel from rusting.
How can i tellif baking pan is zinc?
Zinc is not magnetic but if it is zinc plated steel it will stick to a magnet
Is a copper zinc penny magnetic?
no
