nonmetallic elements. These chemical combinations are commonly known as ore. Significant energy must be expended to reduce the ore to pure metal. This energy can be applied via metallurgical or chemical means and is done so in the process called smelting and refining. Additional energy may be used in the form of cold-working or heating and casting to the pure metal into a working shape. Corrosion‚ which can be simply defined as rust‚ is the tendency for metals to revert to their natural‚ lower energy

Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is one of the most common oxides on the surface of earth. Like most oxides‚ it adopts a polymeric structure. Оксидите се хемиски соединенија што содржат најмалку еден атом на кислород и еден атом од друг хемиски елемент во својата формула. An oxide /ˈɒksaɪd/ is a chemical compound that contains at least one oxygenatom and one other element[1] in its chemical formula. Metal oxides typically contain an anion of oxygen in the oxidation state of −2. Most of the Earth’s crustconsists

TOPIC 2 Metals The History of Metals * Uses of metals through history: * Copper Age (3200-2300 BCE) – copper and tin were most common metals‚ and were used for ornaments‚ weapons and tools. * Bronze Age (2300-700 BCE) – copper‚ tin and bronze were used for tools‚ weapons and transport. They produced bronze by heating copper and tin with charcoal. * Iron Age (1000 BCE – 1 CE) – iron steel and lead was used for tools‚ weapons and pipes. Iron is much harder than bronze.
