there are various ferrous metals but the three main ferrous metals are:
1. pig iron
2. cast iron
3. steel
ferrous metals contain iron, non-ferrous metals do not.
from the latin for iron
because ferrous metals are stronger and harder than ferrous metals thats why they are extensively used in structural application.
They are both non ferrous metals
Ferrous metals contain ferrite (Iron) whereas non-ferrous metals don't contain any Iron and are usually non-magnetic

There are a number of ferrous metals. These ferrous metals include iron, steel, and a variety of types of stainless steel.
They are both non ferrous metals
groups 3-12 on the table are called transition metals Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Ra are all what is called alkali earth metals
Ferrous metals are metals that contain iron, or more commonly recognised as magnetic.Non ferrous metals don't contain iron therefore aren't magneticFerrous materials contain iron. Non Ferrous material do not contain iron.
It means if they are effected by a magnet. Ferrous metals are pulled by a magnet.

There are many types of metals you get ferrous and non ferrous metals. A magnet will stick to ferrous metals such as iron and steel but wont stick to non ferrous metals like copper or alluminium.
Iron is often referred to as a ferrous metal, but the word ferrous really refers to compounds containing iron. Compounds containing iron having a valance of +2 are ferrous; those compounds containing iron having a valence of +3 are ferric. In a more general sense, ferrous metals are metals or metal alloys that contain the element iron. Steel, for example, is a ferrous metal, and there are a number of other alloys that contain iron. Use the link below for more information. all ferrous metals are magnetic and contaain a small amount of other metals to provide the correct properties
Metals having iron contents that is fe in them are comes in the category of ferrous metals thats why thy are called Feerous metals because of the presence of Fe. on the other side non- ferrous metals does not have iron content.
