Zinc is a lustrous, brittle, silvery-white metal. It is fairly reactive that will be oxidized or reacts with other non-metals. Most zinc is used for galvanizing other metals (ex. Iron, steel) as an anti-corrosion agent. Other applications are in batteries, small non-structural castings, and alloys like brass or bronze.
