Solution : The correct option is electroplating .

Electroplating is depositing a thin metal coating onto the surface of another material using an electric current. It is widely used for ornamental, useful, and protective purposes. Examples include gold plating for jewellery, and chrome plating for automotive parts. Crystallization is the formation of solid crystals from a solution, and galvanization is the process of coating a metal with a layer of zinc to prevent corrosion.
