equipment. It therefor comes as no surprise that finding a way to make HTF’s more efficient is desirable in the scientific community. Research is being done to attempt to rectify this issue by adding materials with a high thermal conductivity (metal’s and metal oxides) to HTF’s in accordance with Maxwell’s heat transfer equations [1]. Until recently this problem was addressed by using micro scale solid particles with millimeter sizes which were blended into the HTF’s. Unfortunately problems which include

Wire A wire is a single‚ usually cylindrical‚ flexible strand or rod of metal. Wires are used to bear mechanical loads or electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is commonly formed by drawing the metal through a hole in a die or draw plate. Standard sizes are determined by various wire gauges. The term wire is also used more loosely to refer to a bundle of such strands‚ as in ’multistranded wire’‚ which is more correctly termed a wire rope in mechanics‚ or a cable in electricity. Although

Before the 1900s‚ tin was commonly used to package household foods. Since it protected the foods inside‚ and it could be bent with ease‚ it was regarded as an inexpensive‚ easy and health conscious way to keep foods fresh. Some of its disadvantages‚ which lead to its defeat to aluminum‚ included the fact that it could only be rolled thicker than aluminum; it became brittle when warm‚ reducing its malleability greatly‚ and the tin foil created a strange aftertaste‚ which was undesirable to many.

A. Based on your observations make an activity series of the metals used. List them in such a way that the most active metal is on the left and the least active metal is on the right. Remember‚ sodium and copper are metals‚ too. B. Suppose you inserted a piece of copper into a solution of nickel chloride and observed no reaction. Then if you inserted a piece of iron into the solution of

Materials can be natural or man-made. Natural materials can come from animals‚ plants or the ground. Man-made materials are artificially made using chemicals. There are different types of materials. Examples: Wood Rubber Cloth Metal Rock Plastics Glass Wood: Wood comes from trees. Wood can last for a long time if it is properly seasoned and treated with paint and preservatives. Wood is: - Waterproof - Hard - Floats - Opaque - Poor conductor

Despite that the form of metals was very basic but it has a big impact on the society because of its wide uses especially as tools for agriculture or hunting and even as artistic styles later on. There are 86 known metals so far that were

test is a procedure used by chemists to identify the presence of specified metal ions‚ based on the color the flame that appears along with it when it ’s heated. Our flame test was in lab class‚ where the main aim was to tested different solid metals in the flame in order to observe the wide variety of colors those chemicals also sometimes compounds (by mixing them) they produced‚ the second one was to identify unknown metals based on their flame color . Based on our chemistry classes there are two
