the chemical symbol Fe‚ is an extremely useful metal and the most common element 0n the planet Earth. Here are some of the more common uses of iron in the world today. Uses of Iron * Iron catalysts are used in the Haber-Bosch Process to produce ammonia and the Fischer-Tropsch Process to convert carbon monoxide to hydrocarbons used for fuels and lubricants. * Iron metal is strong but is also quite cheap. Therefore‚ it is the most common metal in use today. Most automobiles‚ machine tools‚

increase/decrease in rust and corrosion when dipped in different solutions. Corrosion is the reaction between a metal and it’s surrounding environments. Corrosion occurs when a metal (for example Copper) and different environments (such as water‚ air‚ acids‚ bases‚ etc.) come into contact. Corrosion is the act of deterioration in metals.[1] A chemical reaction occurs between the metal and it’s environments Eg. Copper + Oxygen ( Copper Oxide Cu (I) + O ( CuO Rust is very similar to corrosion

mine which is located in Kalgoorlie‚ Australia‚ which mines for Bismuthas a side business. . Bismuth is removed and separated from ores known as Bismuthinite and Bismite. It is also collected as a by-product from other metal ore processing. . The separation of bismuth metal from lead has two processes‚ the Betterton-Kroll Process or the Betts Process. 1.The Betterton-Kroll Process separates bismuth from lead through the introduction of calcium or magnesiuminto a molten solution of the lead and

ANALYSIS On the first part of the experiment which is the determination of specific heat of metals. The obtained value of experimental specific heat of metal of aluminum and copper are 0.2152 calg-℃ and 0.0958 cal g-℃ ‚ respectively. It is a must to work faster in performing this experiment because working in an air-conditioned room greatly affects the result of the temperature. For the temperature values‚ the final temperature of mixture should not increase more than 1 ℃ compare

Chemistry assignment Introduction: Throughout modern day society metals are constantly used‚ in fact mankind has been heavily dependent on metals for the last several hundred years. But the science behind metals has only been discovered in recent years and has now become known to people that we simply could not live without them. Metals make up around 80% of the elements (currently discovered). They are used in everyday items that society depends on‚ such as: cars‚ re-bars for building‚ window

IGCSE Complete Chemistry Notes Unit 1: States of matter Everything is made of particles. Particles in solid are not free to move around. Liquids and gases can. As particles move they collide with each other and bounce off in all directions. This is called random motion. In 2 substances‚ when mixed‚ particles bounce off in all directions when they collide. This mixing process is called diffusion. It’s also the movement of particles without a force. The smallest particle

Ruthenium is the 44th element on the periodic table of the elements. Ruthenium was named after the Latin name for Russia‚ Ruthenia. It is a very rare‚ silvery‚ and shiny transition metal found in South America‚ North America‚ and South Africa. Ruthenium was found in 1844 by Karl Karlovich Klaus. In 1808‚ a Polish chemist named Jedrzej Sniadecki found an element he called vestium in platinum ores from South America. When French chemists tried to repeat his work‚ however‚ they did not find it in the

transfer heat away from the computer’s processor. Heat sinks are usually made of metal‚ which serves as the thermal conductor that carries heat away from the CPU. However‚ there are pros and cons to using every type of metal. First‚ each metal has a different level of thermal conductivity. The higher the thermal conductivity of the metal‚ the more efficient it is at transferring heat. One of the most common metals used in heat sinks is aluminum. Aluminum has a thermal conductivity of 235 watts per
