Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
A bucket made of plastic does not get rusted easily because plastic is a non-reactive substance. Therefore, it is not affected by conditions like moisture or air, which are essential for corrosion. In contrast to iron, which oxidises when exposed to air and water, plastic does not react with air; hence corrosion only occurs in iron when exposed to air and water. As a result, the statement is true.
