WHAT IS METAL? A metal is a chemical element that is a good conductor of both electricity and heat. Metals are malleable and ductile and have lustrous appearance. They have moderate to high physical constants and high tensile strength. Metals are further divided into two main groups - ferrous and non ferrous metals. TYPES OF METAL • FERROUS METAL These are metals which contain iron. They may have small amounts of other metals or other elements added‚ to give the required properties

Metals and Non-metals Elements are divided mainly into two groups on the basis of physical and chemical properties – Metal and Non-metal. Metals: Part - I Physical Properties of Metals:- Hardness:- Most of the metals are hard‚ except alkali metals‚ such as sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium‚ etc. Sodium‚ potassium‚ lithium etc. are very soft metals‚ these can be cut using knife. Strength:- Most of the metals are strong and have high tensile strength. Because of this big structures are made using metals

3/5/14 3/5/14 Flame Test Purpose In this experiment I will learn how to perform and observe the flame tests of some alkali and alkaline earth metals and be able to identify and unknown chemical by the color of the flame Procedure I placed about 0.5 mL of 8 different chemicals into 8 different places in the 24-well plate. I then lit the handy wick to keep a flame burning. I soaked a cotton swab in the first chemical and moved the cotton swab in and out of the flame rapidly to see the flame color change

Oxidation & Reduction I. Metal-Metal Ion Displacement II. Halogen Displacement Reactions INTRODUCTION A series of experiments had been conducted to determine the order of displacement strengths of the metals and halogen chosen for the experiments. A displacement reaction is a reaction in which one element(metal or non-metal) displaces another element(metal or non-metal) from its salt solution. In the displacement reaction of metals‚ the more electropositive metal will displace the less

Chemistry - Module 2 - Metal 1. Metals have been extracted and used for many thousands of years * Outline and examine some uses of different metals through history‚ including contemporary uses‚ as uncombined metals or as alloys. Contemporary Uses of common metals Metal | Uses | Iron and Steel (an alloy with <2% carbon)Good tensile strength‚ cheap‚ rusts (corrodes) | - Railways‚ bridges‚ buildings- motor cars bodies‚ ships and trains- Engine blocks‚ fire hydrants‚ drainage

A generation of Suffolk Sporting talent inspired by Olympic flame The Suffolk Youth Games completed its inspirational journey from the millennium to the Olympics yesterday and bowed out in a blaze of glory as the Olympic Torch visited the closing ceremony. Around 800 young people representing Suffolk’s sporting future converged on Bury St Edmunds on Saturday 7th July for the thirteenth staging of the Redrow Homes Suffolk Youth Games. The event‚ organised by Suffolk Sport‚ the County Sports Partnership

Flame Lab Objective: How an electron absorbs energy and re-emits it as light and why different elements have different spectra. Also to learn how to use flame tests to determine the identity of unknown mixtures. Hypothesis: We know that certain compounds will burn certain flame colors because they emit different wave lengths. Introduction: Neils Bohr made the “Bohr’s Model” in 1922‚ he found that electron travel in specified fields – which‚ when excited‚ will jump to different rings

How does the chemical being burned affect the color of fire? Why do you think each fire burns a different color? The colors of the flames are are due to the different chemicals and substances. The bright yellow-orange of most wood fueled flames is because of the sodium‚ and when it’s heated‚ it emits the glow of the fire. The blue in some wood-fueled flames is because of the carbon and hydrogen emit a blue and purple aura. How are the colors produced by a chemical when it burns related to the atomic
