Pickling________________?

Correct answer: C. Removes surface oxides from gold castings

  • A. Is accomplished by soaking the casting in baking soda
  • B. Causes porosity in gold
  • C. Removes surface oxides from gold castings
  • D. Remove investment from gold casting

Explanation

Pickling uses an acidic solution to dissolve surface oxides and tarnish from a casting, particularly after heating. Baking soda is not the pickling treatment, and investment removal is divesting rather than pickling.
