If you are asking if there will be a chemical rection between the copper and steel, such as an explosion, no. Metals have a property called nobility, which measure a metals resistance to corrosion when in contact with another metal. The further apart they are on the nobility scale, the worse the corrosion. Copper and stainless steel are not very far apart. Copper and aluminum are a poor mix. The Galvanic Scale should be checked to see if certain metals in contact will accelerate corrosion.

What happens when aluminium reacts with iron oxide and where is this reaction used?
Iron is formed with aluminium oxide. The reaction is used for welding iron (steel) components.
What are chemical properties of stainless steel?
Pure iron (Fe), mixed with carbon to produce 'steel', Chromium is added to steel to make it resistant to rust. copper, Titanium annd vanadium are the alloys which make it more suitable for specific uses,
Why are copper wires and not steel wires used in electric circuits although both are copper and steel are electoral conductors?
copper is cheaper to manufacture and easier to bend then steel
Which is harder mild steel or copper?
mild steel
Is steel a useful alloy of copper and tin?
steel is an alloy of iron and about 0.1%-0.3% carbon. bronze is an alloy of copper+ tin....( not steel)
What happens when copper sulfate and steel wool is mix?
IF THE COPPER SULFATE DISSOLVES IN WATER, HAS A BLUE COLOR. WHEN STEEL WOOL IS MIXED WITH COPPER SULFATE,, THE STEEL WOOL DISSAPEARS, A BROWNISH SOLID FORMS, AND THE COLOR OF THE SOLUTION CHANGES FROM BLUE TO GREEN.Copper is produced.
What happens when steel wool is added to copper sulphate?
Copper is deposed on the steel wool.
What happens when copper sulfate is mix with steel wool?
Fe + CuSO4 -> FeSo4 + Cu it's a single replacement reaction The steel wool becomes copper plated.
Who invented brass?
I believe the Chinese invented brass in ancient china when they mixed copper and steel
What is the reaction of steel mixed with acid?
Very fast corrosion e.g Fe + 2HCl -----> FeCl2 + H2
How do you turn a stainless silver spoon into a copper spoon?
copper sulfate, or Cu(SO4)(aq). The first clue we have that it is, in fact, copper sulfate is its reaction with the ammonia solution. When the deep blue color formed(in the reaction), the solution formed is [Cu(NH3)4](OH)2(aq), which gives off a bluish color. Secondly, upon acidification of [Cu(NH3)4](OH)2(aq), we see the solution become practically colorless again, The third clue when potassium ferrocyanide is mixed with copper sulfate, it also forms a red precipitate. And last but not least, when copper sulfate reacts with steel, which is primarily iron, copper is formed. This is why the steel changed to a bronze like metal.mystery=copper sulfate
What is the copper percent in mild steel?
Mild steel, not copper.
What happens when Steel wool is added to a copper sulphate solution?
I think basically what happens is a single replacement (or maybe double?) but copper will be drawn from the copper sulfate and form on the outside of the steel wool. If it's a double replacement then something in the steel wool will replace the copper and you'll have a new sulfate solution. I remember doing this lab in chemistry a number of years back, so sorry that I can't remember all the details. T_T
How do you solder steel and copper?
You cannot solder Steel BUT you can braze steel and copper and you can thread steel and then use a copper x female adapter Or finf a steel fitting and use a C x M adapter
Which conducts heat faster steel copper or metal?
Steel and copper are both metals, but copper is the best conductor.
What happens when aluminium reacts with iron oxide and where is this reaction used?
Iron is formed with aluminium oxide. The reaction is used for welding iron (steel) components.
What type of metal is used to make the statue of liberty?
Steel and copper - however, the flame on her torch is covered in gold leaf.
