The plating of iron with zinc is called galvanization. This process involves coating iron or steel with a layer of zinc to protect it from corrosion and rusting. Galvanization is commonly achieved through methods such as hot-dip galvanizing or electro-galvanizing. The zinc layer acts as a sacrificial anode, providing long-lasting protection to the underlying metal.

Zinc is typically used in the process of galvanizing iron. The iron is dipped into a bath of molten zinc, which forms a protective zinc coating on the surface of the iron to prevent corrosion.
You will have a mixture of zinc and iron filings.
No, pennies are not ferromagnetic because they do not contain enough iron to exhibit magnetic properties. The composition of pennies primarily consists of copper and zinc, which are not magnetic materials.
The zinc oxide (ZnO) is the most used white pigment. Zinc (as metal) is used for plating iron alloys.
The main difference between alkaline zinc plating and cyanide zinc plating is the type of bath used in the plating process. Alkaline zinc plating uses an alkaline electrolyte solution, while cyanide zinc plating uses a cyanide-based electrolyte solution. Alkaline zinc plating is considered more environmentally friendly compared to cyanide zinc plating, which contains toxic cyanide compounds.

no a penny is copper... Actually not since 1982.... In the middle of that year the rising price of copper forced the Mint to change the coin's composition to zinc with a thin copper plating. The copper plating is only 2.5% of the coin's composition.
Zinc plating a metal which has a less negative reduction potential will protect the metal as the zinc is oxidised in preference. This is called galvanising

It is the element zinc in its molten state that we dip iron or steel into to galvanize it.
Zinc can displace iron from iron chloride. This is because zinc is higher in the reactivity series than iron. Copper, however, cannot displace iron from iron chloride as it is lower in the reactivity series than iron.
There are zinc and iron pills at the pharmacy.

one example is zinc+iron sulphate= iron+ zinc sulphate
