Among them we can count durability‚ strength and‚ as a semi-noble metal‚ good resistance to corrosion. With a hardness of 3 on the Mohs scale‚ pure copper is relatively soft and malleable‚ which makes it an easy metal to work with. Analyses of artefacts from lithic civilizations have shown that native copper had not only been hammered‚ but annealed as well (Tylecote‚ 1976). Together with lead and tin‚ copper was one of the first metals to be smelted. With 1084 degrees Celsius it has a relatively low

Perchloric acid’s chemical formula is HClO4. This acid is not usually used alone. It is used for a solvent for metals and alloys a dehydrating agent‚ particularly in the determination of silica in iron and steel and in cement and other silicate materials. It is also used as a solvent for sulfide ores for the determination of copper and other metals‚ in the separation and determination of the alkali metals sodium and potassium. In the manufacture of anhydrous magnesium perchlorate‚ the best of the absorbents

Name: Hannah Crome Introduction Corrosion is the oxidation of metals by materials in their environment. Rust is the corrosion of iron by oxygen in a moist environment. Corrosion has many effects on the properties of metals‚ corroded buildings‚ or machinery can develop weaknesses that result in malfunctions or breakages. Corroded metal can also not conduct electricity‚ which again can interfere with the functions of that metal. Aim: the aim of this experiment is to evaluate the effect that

For colored fire‚ potassium chlorate or potassium perchlorate is combined with a metal salt that determines the color. Inside each firework are small packets filled with chemicals‚ mainly metal salts and metal oxides‚ which react to produce an array of colors. When heated‚ the atoms of each element in the mix absorb energy causing its electrons to rearrange from their lowest energy state to a

Scrap Metal To Inform To inform my audience that scrap is a commodity often confused with waste. Scrap has monetary value making up one of the largest exports of the United States. Introduction I. Scrap is a $65 billion dollar industry in the United States. The U.S exports $15.7 billion to other countries. II. While this is a global industry it all starts with local entrepreneurs like me. III. Scrap is everything that we throw away that can be recycled and used to make new products.

a function of Reynolds number . Theory : The friction resistance to the flow of fluid through a pipe results in a loss of pressure energy for a given fluid flowing a long a given pipe‚ experiments show that for laminar flow : Hl α V And for turbulent flow : Hl α Vn Where : Hl :is the loss of pressure head . V : the mean velocity of flow . n : an index that lies between ( 1.7 – 2.0 ) depending on Reynolds number ( Re ) and on the roughness of the pipe wall. The Reynolds number ( Re )

Properties of Different Bonds An ionic compound forms from a nonmetal and metal element. A covalent compound is formed by two non metal elements. A metallic compound is formed by two metal elements. Metallic compounds have generally high melting points‚ are loose and flexible with their electrons‚ conduct electricity well‚ and have low solubility in water. Ionic compounds are generally crystals‚ have a high melting point‚ and usually have high solubility in water and conduct electricity well when

experiment‚ the drag coefficient of a cylinder was calculated from data obtained by performing tests in an air bench. Two methods of analysis were used to calculate drag measurements on the cylinder: direct measurement of the drag force and applying the Reynolds Transport Theorem to control volume enclosed by the test section. In the first method‚ the drag coefficient can be determined by directly measuring the drag force exerted on the cylinder. The drag force by weight measurement is given by the weight

1. Important characteristics required for materials in Automotive Engineering Polymers have been used in the automotive industry for many decades. It is regarded as an efficient material as it is very durable and could significantly reduce production costs. However‚ as technology advances‚ new polymers are found and better alternatives are paved for the automotive industry. The vehicles we see today are very different than that of the yesteryears. This proves how far the automotive industry has
