Zinc is not used__________________?

Correct answer: D. As an alloying element in various bronzes

  • A. For producing zinc base die casting alloys
  • B. In its oxide form as pigments
  • C. As anode for corrosion prevention in boiler
  • D. As an alloying element in various bronzes

Explanation

Zinc is used in die-casting alloys, zinc-oxide pigments and sacrificial anodes for boiler corrosion protection. Zinc is characteristic of brass rather than bronze, so it is not normally described as an alloying element in various bronzes.
