Introduction Quartz is one of the most plentiful minerals on earth, and it is found in various igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Clear Quartz is composed of pure silicon dioxide, and has nearly smooth sides with naturally faceted points at one or both ends. Clear Quartz is also known by the name Ice Crystal, which was derived from the Greek word “krystallos,” which means “icy cold.” (1) Greek philosopher’s believed that this crystal was water frozen so hard that it could never thaw.…
Case For Metal Roofing: The Pros Outweigh The Cons By A Long Shot What your roof is made of makes a big difference in how your home takes care of you and your family. For the following reasons, metal is, more often than not, the best choice for the job. The Pros Of Metal Roofing Longevity A metal roof is likely to remain functional and intact for as long as the home it covers does, resisting weather, rot, infestations and water all the while. According to one industry study, your metal roof…

Chemistry Task 2 Portfolio Outline and examine some uses of different metals through history, including contemporary uses, as uncombined metals or as alloys. Metal/Metal Alloy Uses Throughout History Copper - Used to make ornaments and domestic utensils in historical times (not as tools as it is a soft metal) - In modern times used in electrical wiring, pipes and plumbing fittings, jewellery, decoration, - This is due to its malleability, ductility and good electrical conductivity. Bronze…
The rivets and grommets are made of copper and come from a company in Missouri, that acquires it's raw materials from U.S. mines. In 2014 the United States produced 1.37 million metric tons of copper, worth $9.7 billion, making it the world's fourth largest copper producer. Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Nevada, and Montana are the top five copper producing states. The process of extracting copper from copper ore varies according to the type of ore and the desired purity of the final product. The…
Steven Joseph Chem 111 Eli Munoz 3 October 2016 Chemistry Technical Abstract: The Copper Cycle Steven Joseph*, Christian Contreras Introduction: This experiment consisted of studying the copper cycle. Along with its overall significance to biological systems, reactions were done in order to test the types of reaction types associated with copper. In addition, vacuum filtration methods and detailed observations were taken on how copper reacts with different chemicals as it is constantly heated…
During the sheet metal operations, e.g. bending, stamping, drawing and stretching, among the various possible modes of failure, such as wrinkling, scoring, the tearing of a polycrystalline sheet metal is the most common, resulting from an uneven or exorbitant amount of plastic deformation forming a localized neck and therefore limiting the formability of the polycrystalline sheet metal. In the sheet-metal forming industry, it is therefore, of high importance that the failure of metal sheets due…
Based on Physical and Chemical Properties, Determination of Identities of Zinc, Sodium, Beryllium, Copper and Boron By: Shreya Uppala, Lizzy Jolly, and Kyrie Harrell Results: The first element we tested was zinc. Since zinc was already known, the density was stated to be 7.13g/mL and the hardness was a 2.5 based on the Mohs Hardness Scale. No magnetic attraction was observed when in contact with a magnet. Zinc had a shiny appearance with a light gray color and the strips of zinc added to…
The change in enthalpy for the combustion of magnesium metal Abstract ======== Hess’s law of heat summation states that the value of DH for a reaction is the same whether it occurs directly or as a series of…
Toxicology Profile; Arsenic Basic Chemistry Introduction Arsenic is an abundant naturally occurring element with an atomic number of 33 and an atomic weight of 74.92 g. Although strictly a metalloid, arsenic is commonly referred to as a ‘heavy metal’ and can be found within group 4 of the periodic table. It should be noted that most of the other elements within this group have a biological role, but arsenic itself is a toxin (see section 1.x). Some additional chemical properties of elemental…
