A magnet will not cling to copper because there is no iron in it.
Copper is a non-ferrous metal because it does not contain iron.
No, copper is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, like steel. Copper is a non-ferrous metal.
it produces a magnetic field. i think that if current is passed through the wire it can attract pieces of iron
No, copper is not a ferrous metal. Ferrous metals are those that contain iron, while copper is a non-ferrous metal, meaning it does not contain iron.
copper is a metal but it is a non ferrous metal
Copper is an example of non-ferrous metal.
yes. It is a non ferrous metal in that it is an alloy of copper and zinc. Ferrous refers to iron, the elemental symbol for iron is Fe.
A metal is classified as a ferrous metal if it has steel in it , tip (if a magnet sticks to a metal, it is ferrous) A metal is classified as a non-ferrous metal if it has no steel in it, tip (if a magnet does not stick to a metal, it is non-ferrous) Non-ferrous metals: Brass Copper Nickel Tin Ferrous metals: Steel Iron
one example of a non ferrous metal is copper.
NO!!!! 'Ferrous' refers to Iron ONLY , from its Latin name (Ferrum ; Fe) Any alloys containing iron may be described as 'ferrous' Copper bein an element is definitely NOT ferrous.
Aluminum bronze is a non-ferrous metal. It is a type of bronze that contains aluminum as the main alloying element, along with copper. Non-ferrous metals do not contain iron as a primary component.
Oh, dude, pewter is a non-ferrous metal. It's like a mix of different metals, usually tin, antimony, and copper, but no iron in there. So, yeah, pewter won't stick to a magnet, unlike those ferrous metals that cling on for dear life.
