Galvanizing protects in two ways: 1  It forms a coating of corrosion-resistant zinc which prevents corrosive substances from reaching the more delicate part of the metal. 2  The zinc serves as a sacrificial anode so that even if the coating is scratched, the exposed steel will still be protected by the remaining zinc.he earliest known example of galvanizing of iron, encountered by Europeans is found on 17th century Indian armor in the Royal Armouries Museum collection. It was named in English via French from the name of Italian scientist Luigi Galvani.
Keyboard and pedals. Almost every modern piano has 88 keys (seven octaves and a bit, from A0 to C7). Many older pianos only have 85 (from A0 to A6), while some manufacturers extend the range further in one or both directions.
Seven white keys and five black keys form an octave. As you already know, now pianos have 88 keys, that is, 7Â¼ octaves. As a rule, there are 52 white keys and 36 black keys on a regular piano. However, not only standard 88 key pianos are used now. Some well-known piano makers produce instruments with different number of keys. For example, there are 92 of them in BÃ¶sendorfer 225, and even 97 keys in BÃ¶sendorfer 290.
