them. Thus was produced‚ some 6000 years ago‚ a new mineral‚ and from that a new material to which‚ much later‚ we have given the name copper metal. And that day began the Copper Age. In fact‚ this was the beginning of both mining and metallurgy. Not satisfied with copper any longer than a few hundred years‚ he began experiments with other metallic ores like tin‚ zinc and lead‚ and with a stroke of metallurgical

A Fruit battery is a device used in experiments proposed in many science textbooks around the world. It is made by inserting two different metallic objects‚ for example a galvanized nail and a copper coin‚ into an ion bridge (for example a lemon‚ a potato or paper soaked in salt water or acid). The copper coin serves as the positive electrode or cathode and the galvanized nail as the electron-producing negative electrode or anode. These two objects work as electrodes‚ causing anelectrochemical reaction

The United States of America do a good job in honoring their traditions from the past. If you take a look at a penny‚ most people will see our sixteenth president‚ and some will just see a cooper mixed zinc coin that is worth one cent.

metals. Zinc‚ copper‚ and lead are three of the most common heavy metals released from road travel‚ accounting for at least 90 of the total metals in road runoff. Lead concentrations‚ however‚ consistently have been decreasing since leaded gasoline was discontinued. Smaller amounts of many other metals‚ such as nickel and cadmium‚ are also found in road runoff and exhaust. About half of the zinc and copper contribution to the environment from urbanization is from automobiles. Brakes release copper‚ while
