It is soft in nature . Because of its dramatic color change and the ease of the hydration/dehydration reaction, "cobalt chloride" is used as an indicator for water in desiccants.
Its formula is CoCl2.6H2O
Cobalt's density is 8.90 grams per cubic centimeter. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article for more information on cobalt.
Not sure of cobalt, by itself. Cobalt steel HSS bits (M35) can reach a hardness of 67.
About 5 on Moh's hardness scale.
About 5 on the Moh's hardness scale.
It is about 5.
iron
MOHs 5.0
Cobalt is ferromagnetic, but considerably less so than iron. Alloys of cobalt such as aluminium, nickel, cobalt and iron, known as Alnico, and of samarium and cobalt (samarium-cobalt magnet) are commonly used to make high quality permanent magnets.
There are no compounds in Cobalt. It is completely impossible, because Cobalt is an element, and compounds are made up of elements. If this is what you meant to ask, then there a a lot of compounds with Cobalt in them. One example is Cobalt (III) Fluoride, chemical formula CoF3. Any compound with a "Co" (the "C" must be capitalized and the "o" must lowercase) in it contains Cobalt.
Cobalt is added to steel to produce magnetic, high strength or very hard metals. It is also used as a blue pigment in coloring glass and pottery. A radioisotope, Cobalt 60, is used as a high energy gamma ray source for medical treatment and for testing of metal components.
Cobalt has a melting point of 1495 degrees Celsius (2723 Fahrenheit), so it is a solid at normal environmental temperatures.
Cobalt! duhh
Cobalt will make a magnet stronger but, definitely NOT Lead. Cobalt is used to make Hard disks and other components for computers.
the filter on my 06 cobalt ss is in the fuel tank.. yours may be too

because its a gm vehicle
Cobalt is a metal related to iron. It has a red tint while it is very hard, it has a low melting temperature compared to other metals. Cobalt tools are used for high speed cutting applications when alloyed with chromium and tungsten.
Cobalt is an element on the periodic table. It is a grey metal that is hard and found near copper in underground mines.
Cobalt metal is found naturally only in chemically combined form. The element produced by reductive smelting, is a very hard, lustrous, silver-gray metal.
cobalt is very hard, it is most likely for strength and durability
It's pretty hard. Nice to smell. Smell it all day long please.
Yes, cobalt form many chemical compounds as cobalt nitrate, cobalt chloride, cobalt sulfate, cobalt sulfide, etc.
