Why does the solubility of carbon in steel increase while heating?
Steel is mainly Iron with small amount of Nickel or/and chromium, carbon content of steel is about 2.5%. The increase in temperature increases the distance among the Iron atoms so carbon become accommodated easily in material.
How do you make chrome steel?
You add some chromium to the alloy when producing it. It's not something you can do at home, though you may be able to plate an existing steel piece with a thin layer of chromium.
What is the metal added to steel to increase rust resistance?
The name of the mineral that is added to steel in order to increase rust resistance, is chromium. Chromium is a very hard and brittle type of mineral that resist tarnishing and takes a high polish.
What is the purpose of tempering a quench hardened plain carbon steel?
Tempering is applied to quench hardened plain carbon steel to: 1. reduce brittleness. 2. increase ductility. 3. increase toughness. 4. relieve stresses in the martensite structure. Increase in tempering temperature lowers the hardness. The reduction in hardness of the quenched steel depends upon the composition of the alloy and the exact value of the temperature applied.
What happens when you put steel wool in a jar?
Steel wool is not soluble in water, neither can it absorb water but can get wet so if you take the steel wool out of the water the wet (due to capillary action and surface tension) steel wool will weigh more than dry steel wool. Then the steel wool will rust (and the mass will increase because oxygen unites with iron to form the rust).
