In response to several requests from teachers, we try to not do students' homework assignments for them, K., so please provide some context. It is difficult to answer such a question without context anyway. Certainly some materials can be applied by PVD but not by electroplating (and vice versa). And there is a lowered potential for release of a toxic material to the environment. Good luck.
