Definition: Chromium, when used to plate other metals.
Alright class, settle down and letโs take a look!
Youโve asked a really good question today, itโs quite astute, you see โ about the word โchrome.โ
The dictionary is right, it's all about
chromium
, you agree?
Itโs a metal shiny, bright, and free!
But let's dig a little deeper, donโt just take the words at face,
Chromium is used to
plate
โ thatโs its special grace.
Plating
means covering something with a thin layer, you see,
Like coating steel or iron for all the world to decree!
It makes them look brand new, gleaming and bright,
A beautiful, reflective, silvery light!
Think of car bumpers, shiny and bold,
Or faucets in your kitchen, stories to be told โ
They're often plated with chromium, itโs true,
To give them that shimmer, a brilliant hue. ๐
Does that make sense? Any questions for me now?
