Electroplating – is a process involving oxidation
reduction reaction to protect an
object or for decorative effect.
2 types of conduction
1.) Metallic Conduction – refers to the movement of
electrons through a metal.
2.) Electrolytic Conduction – refers to the movement of ion
through a molten substance.
