(a)
Interpretation:
The process of formation of pure copper needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Copper is mined from the ores through a process of crushing and separation, which is known as copper concentrate. The Copper distillate is then converted to liquid in a flash smelter. A flux combines with iron in the melt, thereby creating a slag that rises to the top of that containment vessel, and a flow of oxygen converts sulfur to sulfur dioxide gas which is later exhausted.
(b)
Interpretation:
The important properties of copper needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Copper is removed from the ores through a process of crushing and separation which is termed as copper concentrate. The Copper concentrate is then converted to liquid in a flash smelter. A flux combines with iron in the melt, thereby creating a slag that rises to the top of that containment vessel, and a flow of oxygen converts sulfur to sulfur dioxide gas that is then exhausted.
(c)
Interpretation:
The brass alloy needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
An alloy of Cu and Zn is known as brass. In brass, the propotions of Cu and Zn can be different with different electrical and
It is substantial alloy because atoms of the two elements may substitute each other in the same crystal structure. Brass is also used for ornamentation for its positive gold-like appearance, for applications where low abrasion is required such as locks, bearings, gears, ammunition and, doorknobs. It is extensively used in brass musical instruments such as horns and belts where a grouping of high workability and durability is expected.
(d)
Interpretation:
The bronze alloy needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Bronze is an composite containing mostly of copper, generally with about 12-15% tin and frequently with the addition of various metals and non-metals or metalloids like arsenic, phosphorous or silicon. There are different bronze alloys, but typically modern bronze contains percentage of copper and tin as 88% and 12% respectively. Whereas, Alpha bronze alloys of 4-5% tin are used to make coins, springs, turbines, and blades. Bronze is certainly very ductile alloy, and less brittle than cast iron. Bronze oxidizes rapidly.
(e)
Interpretation:
The reason for green color of statue of liberty needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Copper is extracted from the rocks through a method of crushing and separation which is known as copper concentrate. The Copper concentrate is then transformed to liquid in a flash smelter. A flux combines with iron in the liquefy matter thus, creating a slag that rises to the top of that containment vessel, and a movement of oxygen changes sulfur to sulfur dioxide gas that is later worn-out.

- The vapor pressure of Toluene at 50°C in Pa? Find it on perry's chemical engineering handbook 9th or 8th editionarrow_forwardQu 4 A cylindrical metal specimen 15.0 mm in diameter and 150 mm long is to be subjected to a tensile stress of 50 MPa; at this stress level, the resulting deformation will be totally elastic. If the elongation must be less than 0.072 mm, which of the metals in Table 1 are suitable candidates? If, in addition, the maximum permissible diameter decrease is 2.3 × 10-3 mm when the tensile stress of 50 MPa is applied, which of the metals that satisfy the criterion in part (a) are suitable candidates? see on the tables given part a and b i need to show all work problems formula step by step please make sure is correctly material sciencearrow_forwardZ4 please help on the attached question.arrow_forward
