Introduction Aim: To investigate the factor affecting voltage of voltaic cell. Research Question: How does coupling of different metals from the electroactivity series affect the overall voltage of the galvanic cell? Background Information: The voltaic cell converts chemical energy to electrical energy to generate electricity. There are usually 2 electrolytes used containing spectator metal ions. A salt bridge is used to connect the 2 electrolytes in order to enable the transfer of ions. Circuit is connected

Lure of precious metals: Precious metals were a major pull factor for the west because everybody was looking for the opportunity to become wealthy individuals which was known as the American dream at that time. Gold and silver was the metals that every single person was looking for in the westward expansion‚ immigrants and citizens were willing to kill to get their hands on any gold or silver mine. The killing‚ weirdly enough‚ was mostly was the removal of Indians. The India wars: War was inedible

Why do metals conduct electricity? Metals conduct electricity. The delocalised electrons are free to move throughout the structure in 3-dimensions. They can cross grain boundaries. Even though the pattern may be disrupted at the boundary‚ as long as atoms are touching each other‚ the metallic bond is still present. Liquid metals also conduct electricity‚ showing that although the metal atoms may be free to move‚ the delocalisation remains in force until the metal boils. Why are metals malleable

Zinc is a lustrous bluish-white metal. It is brittle and crystalline at ordinary temperatures but it becomes ductile and malleable when heated between 110°C and 150°C. It is a reactive metal that can combine with oxygen and other non-metals and will react with dilute acids to release hydrogen. Mostly zinc is used for galvanizing iron with more than 50% of metallic zinc goes into galvanizing steel and in the preparation of certain alloys. Then‚ zinc is added during industrial activities such as mining

and stronger person. The lead singer‚ Dan Reynolds‚ co-wrote the song with Justin Tranter‚ together they created a song that was very meaningful to Reynolds‚ because it incorporates his feelings. Dan Reynolds suffers from a painful arthritic disease called Ankylosing spondylitis. Ankylosing spondylitis is when the spine and possibly some of the larger joints become inflamed and become very painful. The whole meaning of the song is that pain made Reynolds a believer that he can overcome any hardships

The Reaction of Various Metals with Ionic Salts Purpose: To examine the reaction of various metals with ionic salts Materials: * 4 test tubes * test tube racks * 10mL measuring cylinder * 4 metals (in containers)- Zn‚ Sn‚ Mg‚ Fe * copper (II) sulphate solution Safety: 1. Be careful with copper (II) sulphate solution it is poisonous and corrosive. handle with care 2. Do NOT BREATH in any gases produced 3. If you touch any of the metals‚ you MUST wash your hands

VOLUME‚ AND DENSITY Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is find the density of two metals using their mass and volume. Introduction: The purpose of the experiment that was conducted was to measure and calculate the density of two different metals. Density is an important characteristic of a material. The density of an object shows how much mass is contained in the unit volume. To calculate the density of metals the experimenters had to find out the mass and volume of each and then use the following

series of how metals should react. It places Calcium as the most reactive (of the metals being tested in this experiment)‚ followed by Magnesium‚ Aluminium‚ Zinc‚ Iron‚ Tin and finally‚ as the least reactive (of the metals being tested in this experiment)‚ Copper. However‚ the results this experiment produced did not follow this trend. If the metal that produces the most hydrogen gas is considered the most reactive‚ in this experiment magnesium was most reactive. And‚ similarly‚ if the metal that produces

therefore called the master moulders and renowned bellsmiths and all men of great repute and cunning in foundry work to began the labor. But when the metal had been cast‚ it was discovered that the result was void of worth; for the metals had rebelled one against the other therefore the moulds had to be once more prepared‚ and the fires rekindled‚ and the metal remelted‚ and all the work tediously and toilsomely repeated. The Son of Heaven heard and was angry‚ but spake nothing. A second time the bell
