Q

Native state

A

occurs in nature uncombined with other elements or pure

18
Q

Ore

A

is a rock that contains enough of a metal or a metal compound to make extracting the metal worthwhile

19
Q

Electrolysis

A

is the process by which ionic substances are decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances when an electric current is passed through them

20
Q

How to save iron from rsuting?

A

By puting on it paints, oil or reactive metals (for example magnesium or zinc)

21
Q

22
Q

Most common metal:

A

ALUMINIUM (8%)

23
Q

Second most common:

24
Q

Native means

A

found in its PURE form

25
Example of native metals:
gold, copper, lead, aluminium, mercury, silver
26
5. Scarce (metal) means
NOT MUCH OF THE ELEMENT = RARE
27
6. The most used metal
iron
28
Ore of aluminium
Bauxite
29
Why we using high temperature to delete oxygen from iron?
Because in that situation carbon will connect with oxygen
