Metals form oxides that are basic‚ they are good reducing agents and metals have lower electro negatives.There are many properties of metals. The chemical properties are that they can combine together with other metals to form am alloy

without metal. The metals we use in our houses are mostly for keeping them sturdy. Though there is one problem we have when it comes to metals. That problem is that they rust. Metals rust when they are in contact with oxygen‚ and water. They rust much faster when they are in contact with salt water‚ and acid rain. We chose to see what would happen to various metals when they contacted with salt water. When the electrons move around in the salt water‚ it causes the metals to rust. The metals we chose

I. BACKGROUND CMI has developed a new technology using curled metal to create pile driving pads. Compared to existing products on the market‚ these pad offer several benefits: • Faster pile driving saves contractors rental fees‚ labor expense ‚ and spreads overhead over more feet driven in a given period of time • Longer life of pads save contractors additional cost in reducing changeover time • Heat resistance further reduces changeover time‚ saving additional expenses • Safety – CMI pads

Density of Metals Lab 1. Purpose The purpose of this lab was answered in 4 questions‚ and their answers are here shown. The density of the metals we used were 5g/cm3. The density of a metal piece does not depend on its size‚ it depends on the total mass and total volume. The most accurate way of determining density is dividing mass by volume. You can’t identify metals by their density. It can help you narrow the options down‚ but you can’t identify a metal by using only its density. 2. Question

Metal detectors in schools pose more of a threat than a sense of security. Every student carries metal of some form on them. Pens‚ pencils‚ notebooks and other school supplies all contain metals. If we try to make schools “safer” by placing metal detectors in the entrance and exit of every school building.

In January of 1980‚ Cumberland Metal Industries (CMI) had developed a new product for the pile driving industry. Its new pad‚ made of tightly curled metal‚ had the potential to break into an industry where little or no innovation was taking place. The CMI product testing showed great efficiency gains over the current standard asbestos product. The existing competition consisted of small firms‚ few of which had the knowledge or resources to design and develop new products. CMI seemed on the verge

Ankit Shingala Dr. Campagnolo Chemistry H September 24‚ 2013 Lab on Density of Four Metals Conclusion In this lab we studied the densities of four different metals using a caliper‚ a digital scale‚ and a calculator. Three metals were pure elements like copper‚ iron‚ and aluminum. The fourth metal was an alloy which was brass. The purposes of this lab were to demonstrate that different metal elements have different densities‚ and that alloys have densities somewhere between those elements that
