What happens to brass when put under heat?
Brass is melted between 900 0C and 950 0C.
How well does mercury conduct heat?
Mercury is a good conductor of heat. Unfortunately, heat will produce vapor which is toxic.
Why the brass need to be immersed in the boiling water before place it in the calorimeter?
The brass needs to be immersed in the boiling water for a sufficient enough time that its temperature is the same as the boiling water, 100 degrees Celsius. That will be the initial temperature of the brass. After it is quickly placed in the calorimeter which will contain much cooler water, causing the brass to cool down and the water to heat up until the point where the temperature no longer changes. At that point the temperature of the brass is the same temperature as the water in the calorimeter, which is its final temperature of the brass.
What is brass a example of?
Brass and steel are examples of alloys, meaning they're made up of more than one metal.
What does ethyl cyanoacrylate super glue produce when heated to the state of a gas and also what effects would the products of this chemical reaction have on the human body?
Toxic fumes. Not cyanide, but a handful of other nasty things, and you don't want to breathe them. Heat and cyanoacrylate adhesives (CA's) don't do well together. The fumes can cause the eyes to burn and can also temporarily blur vision. The fumes can irritate the respiratory track, and can cause coughing fits. Burning CA's generates a big handful of partial combustion byproducts. And they should be avoided.
What are the welding safety hazards?
Safety hazards connected with welding include heat, bright light, ultraviolet radiation and fire, as well as inhalation of toxic metal fumes.
What will happen if Iodine Crystals plus Cupric Sulfate plus Calcium Carbonate is heated?
first off DO NOT HEAT IODINE CRYSTALS because they create the same sort of fumes you would fine in a meth lab and it is possible that it can kill you because of its extremely toxic fumes and
A cooper coin is placed so its touching a brass coin how will the heat flow?
heat will flow from the copper coin to the brass coin.
How durable is brass?
under heat very
Does heat effect brass?
The melting point of brass is in the range 900-950 0C, depending on the composition.
Which conducts heat faster iron or brass?
Aluminium is a better conductor than brass, it heats up first! We did it in a science experiment, you can trust this answer!!
What happens to brass when put under heat?
Brass is melted between 900 0C and 950 0C.
What is the best paint stripper for lead based paints?
No, on high heat guns as they vaporize the lead into toxic, fumes. A low heat Speedheater™ infrared paint remover does not. Chemicals make the paint waste hard to contain for safe disposal; dry sanding, dry scraping, and mechanically shaving require HEPA vacuums to entirely collect the toxic paint dust.

Can kerosene heat give you respiratory problems?
Yes. Dry mouth and throat, cough, throat irritation from toxic fumes (especially if the kerosene lamp or heater is in a small room) can occur, along with exacerbation of asthma, COPD and other respiratory illnesses.
If using muriatic acid do the fumes rise or stay near the ground without air movement?
== == While the fumes of muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid - HCl) are slightly heavier than air, the oxidation reaction is highly exothermic. The acid fumes will react with things in air, and generate heat. The heat generated causes gases to rise, so muriatic acid co-oxidant gases will fill the surrounding space. Fumes also mix quickly without heat due to diffusion. A link can be found below to the Wikipedia post on hydrochloric acid. If you are using concentrated acid in still dry air the fumes will not be too bad however you should stil take care. However if you use the stuf in cool conditions especialy in the morning with mist in the air the area around you will soon become a toxic cloud of acid vapor.
What does Australia smell like?
Well, it's hot so you can smell the heat (If you've ever been abroad before, you will understand) Also fumes+Sea Beautiful Country!! :)
Is brass an insulator or conductor?
Brass will conduct both electricity and heat. So brass is a conductor, but not an insulator.
