The smelting of iron (and bronze)‚ which was first accomplished around 1200 BCE allowed for different jobs to be done like shaping rocks and wood (Eppley 11-12). It also allowed for new tools to be made such as scythes that increased agricultural production and created surpluses which means that metallurgy was a part of the first agricultural revolution which also means that it spurred urbanization. Unfortunately‚ smelting iron required lots of wood and caused deforestation

Experiment on Metals Aim-To find out which of these metals will be most reactive with hydrochloric acid‚and plan an investigation to test it out.The Metals given:Calcium‚Aluminium‚Iron‚Magnesium and Zinc. Prediction-I predict that the metal will be the most reactive with hydrocholoric acid is calcium because calcium is in Group 2 which is the alkaline earth metals in the periodic table and because calcium is at the extreme left side of the periodic table and as you go across a period‚the element

The acid forming cations are positively charged ions they commonly include hydrogen ions‚ aluminium ions ‚and iron(II and III ions). Base forming cations commonly comprise of calcium ions‚ magnesium ions‚ sodium ions and potassium ions. It is also known that the CEC is positively correlated with soil pH. As the dilution of the soil solution increases

To add value‚ acquisitions and mergers‚ with Indal‚ Birla Copper and the Nifty and Mt. Gordon copper mines in Australia‚ were done. This strengthened the position of Hindalco in Aluminium and Cooper industry. The aluminium operation extends from mining of bauxite to the production of not only primary aluminium but also the value added downstream products such as flat rolled products

of pH on the corrosion of metals. Corrosion is dependent on a host of factors like temperature‚ nature of material‚ humidity‚ pH etc‚ but this experiment focuses on pH as a factor. The experiment is thus carried out on three samples each of aluminium‚ copper and stainless steel. The samples were weighed‚ then subjected to immersion in different solutions. The three solutions used were conc. sulphuric acid‚ water and conc. Naoh solution. These solutions were chosen so that the range of the pH
