WHAT IS METAL? A metal is a chemical element that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat. Metals are malleable and ductile and have lustrous appearance. They have moderate to high physical constants and high tensile strength. Metals are further divided into two main groups - ferrous and non ferrous metals. TYPES OF METAL • FERROUS METAL These are metals which contain iron. They may have small amounts of other metals or other elements added‚ to give the required properties

Oxidation & Reduction I. Metal-Metal Ion Displacement II. Halogen Displacement Reactions INTRODUCTION A series of experiments had been conducted to determine the order of displacement strengths of the metals and halogen chosen for the experiments. A displacement reaction is a reaction in which one element(metal or non-metal) displaces another element(metal or non-metal) from its salt solution. In the displacement reaction of metals‚ the more electropositive metal will displace the less

Chemistry - Module 2 - Metal 1. Metals have been extracted and used for many thousands of years * Outline and examine some uses of different metals through history‚ including contemporary uses‚ as uncombined metals or as alloys. Contemporary Uses of common metals Metal | Uses | Iron and Steel (an alloy with <2% carbon)Good tensile strength‚ cheap‚ rusts (corrodes) | - Railways‚ bridges‚ buildings- motor cars bodies‚ ships and trains- Engine blocks‚ fire hydrants‚ drainage

Metals and Non-metals Elements are divided mainly into two groups on the basis of physical and chemical properties – Metal and Non-metal. Metals: Part - I Physical Properties of Metals:- Hardness:- Most of the metals are hard‚ except alkali metals‚ such as sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium‚ etc. Sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium etc. are very soft metals‚ these can be cut using knife. Strength:- Most of the metals are strong and have high tensile strength. Because of this big structures are made using metals

Metals & Non-Metals Metals: Good conductors of heat and electricity. Have shining luster. Malleable (this means that they can be hammered or distorted). Ductile (this means that they can be drawn into wires). Most have high melting and boiling points. Are sonorous (give out sound when beaten). Usually solid at room temperature. An exception to this is mercury‚ which is liquid in nature. Examples: Aluminum‚ Gold‚ Copper‚ Silver‚ Sodium‚ Potassium‚ Mercury. Corrode or oxidize in

Background: Cumberland Metal Industries (CMI) was one of the largest manufacturers of curled metal products in the country.Their sales grew from $250‚000 in 1963 to over 18‚500‚000 by 1979.It originally custom fabricated components for chemical process filtration and other highly technical applications. The company’s philosophy soon evolved from selling the metal as a finished product to selling products that used it as a raw material . Earlier CMI used to sell exaust gas recirculation(EGR) valves
