Why does no rusting occur when iron is covered by zinc?
Some metals, including iron, have oxides that do not hold together well, so they fall off, exposing the surface to air, or allow oxygen to pass through them, so pits can form. Zinc is not one of these; when it oxidizes, the oxide adheres to the surface of the metal, covering it and protecting it from atmospheric oxygen. If the zinc is plated onto iron, it protects the iron.
