Extraction of Aluminium Aluminium ore is called bauxite. Bauxite contains aluminium oxide‚ water‚ iron oxide and other impurities. The purified dry ore‚ called alumina‚ is aluminium oxide (Al2O3). The alumina must be molten for electrolysis to work‚ since the ions are not free to move in the solid state. Unfortunately‚ alumina has a high melting point (2040 °C) and it is not practical to do electrolysis at such a high temperature. In the middle of the nineteenth century it was found that alumina

Problem: What methods could be used to extract materials from the given mixture that contains iron filings‚sand‚salt and small stones? Background There are things that must be understood before doing this lab. The first thing that must be understood is a mixture. A mixture has two or more pure substances‚ and the substances keep their chemical compositions (study.com).The next thing to apprehend is filteration. Filtration is a method used to separate a solid that isn’t dissolved in water. Another

adding additional mass. Ex. The iron filings having some sand particles leftover. A yield under 100% would mean that some of the substance was not recovered‚ it could have been lost (spilled) or found in another substance (not separated completely). The percent yields may give some insight into what occurred during the procedure. For example if the percent of iron is >100‚ but the percent of sand is <100 then it may show that some sand was not separated from the iron‚ and was measured with that material

The uncommonly known Bessemer process sparked a turning point in the 1850’s. A process designed to yield steel at a much faster rate allowed for a development in traditional structures‒bridges‚ buildings‚ and skyscrapers‒as well as advanced economic theory and practices and their relation to a successful business model. Revolutionaries such as Andrew Carnegie (a successful entrepreneur) and James Buchanan Eads (an engineer specializing in bridges) paved the way for practices and techniques still

number of layers of zinc atoms around a piece of galvanized iron. This was done by pouring the hydrochloric acid onto the galvanized iron‚ thus removing the zinc from the piece of metal. Laboratory Procedure 1. Measured and recorded the mass of a piece of galvanized iron using a centigram balance and a ruler 2. Measured and recorded the length and width of the galvanized iron using the ruler 3. Put the piece galvanized iron into a 400-ml beaker 4. Added 25mL of hydrochloric acid

studies show that people who eat on an all plant based diet run the same risk of iron deficiency than people who eat meat. "Vitamins A‚C and E intakes were higher in vegetarians than no vegetarians the same with iron intake." Also the iron found in meat is heme iron which is not the kind of iron you want and decreasing your intake on heme iron reduces your risk of metabolic syndrome. Dietary iron found in plants is the iron that you want in your body."(Greger Micheal‚ M.D. June 5 2015 Volume 25). So

originated in Eastern Europe where natives in Asia used iron rings that had been sewn to fabrics for protection. The Asian natives called this type of armour ring mail‚ which would later be known across the world as chain mail however chain mail was not discovered by the rest of the world until the Romans started to use it and chain mail was not truly developed until the medieval era. Before the Romans discovery of chain mail‚ the Romans used brass‚ iron and bronze to make armour‚ however their armour did
