What type of things are made from iridium?
Iridium metal is employed when high corrosion resistance at high temperatures is needed, as in high-end spark plugs, crucibles for recrystallization of semiconductors at high temperatures, and electrodes for the production of chlorine in thechloralkali process. Iridium radioisotopes are used in some radioisotope thermoelectric generators.
Is iridium a metal or non metal?
Iridium is a metallic element that is both hard and brittle. Described as whitish-yellow or silvery in color, it just a little less dense than osmium, which is the densest element-22.560 gm/cm3 compared to 22.6 gm/cm3 . Iridium was discovered by Smithson Tennant, an English chemist, in London, England in 1803, and it's name comes from the Latin for iris, the goddess of the rainbow on account of its colored salts. Tennant was also he discoverer of osmium. It is found in gravel deposits, and believed to occur only in alloys with other noble metals, i.e., not in an uncombined state. Often it is found alloyed with osmium in compounds called osmiridium and iridiosmium, the origin of the names being obvious. It is, however, extremely scarce, occurring in only .001 ppm in the Earth's crust. Iridium has a number of uses. It is used to harden platinum, combined with osmium in creating gold-tip pens, and to make highly specialized crucibles. It iridium can be involved in cancer irradiation, as well as the making of hypodermic syringes and surgical pins. Other uses include spark plugs for helicopters, pivot bearings, and extrusion dies. One very special use of iridium is its role in the weights and measures standard for the kilogram, which is made of an alloy of iridium (10%) and platinum (90%). On account of exceptionally high amounts of iridium in rocks dating to between the Cretaceous period and the Tertiary period, t is speculated by some that iridium was a component of an asteroid that struck the Earth and led to the extinction of the dinosaurs
Why is my 92 mercury topaz requiring me to give it throttle to start at any time?
Hello. i would suggest that the car needs atuneup. There are a few cheaper options to try first. Replace the spark plugs. If it has never been done it needs it anyways. That might be all it needs. Replacing the distributor cap and rotor are a good idea too. Even the spark plug wires. If you haven't used injector cleaner also put a bottle of it in next time you fill up with fuel. I used a set of NGK TR55GP plugs in mine and it starts beautifully now. Cost me about $20 for the 4 plugs. They are an iridium tip plug which helps on start up.
