Question
Which metal from the following does not corrode easily?
- Iron
- Gold
- Platinum
- Both (b) and (c)
Hint:
Both (b) and (c)
The correct answer is: Both (b) and (c)
Gold and Platinum are the metals which do not corrode easily since they are unaffected by Oxygen and other acids, they do not corrode visibly and are more stable than many of their compounds, such as oxides and sulphides. They are given the name noble metals because of their lack of chemical reactivity.
