What are examples of economic regions?
The two economic regions in the U.S. include the industrial North and the agrarian South. Both regions produce a number of materials, including textiles, foodstuffs, and metals. The Midwest and Western regions of the country also manufacture a number of goods for domestic and international consumption.
What is Minor Metals?
Generally speaking, minor metals are the industrial metals whose relatively small market size and/or light trading volume has prohibited them from being traded on major public exchanges such as the LME. Additionally, minor metals are typically mined as by-products or secondary metals in operations focused on precious metals, base metals or possibly some other mineral deposit such as silicon or coal.
What was one economic change that had occured in the south by 1887?
The south was excited and astonished by the development of their own immense resources in metals , marbles, coal, timber, and fertilizers.
What are the basic kinds of economic resources?
Energy-coal, oil, gas, nuclear, alternative energies. Materials, all sorts of ores producing metals. Building materials like cement. Agriculture, for food and clothing. Water, for personal and industrial use. Transport, roads, railways, harbors, shipping, airports. Money, to facilitate trade. Animals, to provide food, and energy in more primitive cultures. Will that do?
How much is one troy ounce of copper worth?
About 26 cents, but copper is priced by the pound and right now, a pound of it is $3.20. (However, it's usually SOLD by the ton, as most industrial metals are.)
What are the importance of heavy metals in cooking?
Heavy metals compounds have frequently toxic properties.
What has properties of metals and non metals?
The metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Do metals have properties of metallic and non metallic?
No, metalloids have properties of metals and nonmetals.
What is classification for the elements that have properties of both metals and non metals?
Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals are classified as metalloids. Metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals, such as being able to conduct electricity but not as effectively as metals. Examples of metalloids include silicon and arsenic.
Do elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of non metals are called halogens?
No, they are not.
Is malleable properties of both metals and non metals?
Malleability is a property of metals, not nonmetals. Metals are malleable, meaning they can be hammered or pressed into different shapes without breaking. Nonmetals are typically brittle and cannot be molded in the same way.
What is an element that shares the properties of metals and nonmetals?
An element that has properties of both metals and non-metals is called Metalloid. Example is Germanium.
How are semi metals related to metals and non metals?
They have properties of metals and non-metals, and also have properties that are around '1/2' of both. An example is silicon, which has a high melting point and is solid (metallic properties). However it is very brittle and it forms an acidic oxide (non-metal). It is a semi-conductor.
What are some properties of mixed metals?
There are a number of physical properties that can be present in meted metals. These metals are often very dull in appearance for example.
Does noble gas have some properties of both meals and nonmetals?
Not of metals. Only the properties of non metals
What element has properties of non metals and metals?
Mercury? its a liquid metal It has metal properties and liquid properties right? someone let me know.
What is a type of element that has some of the properties of metals and non metals?
semi-metals
