Is copper wire heterogeneous?
A copper wire is considered to be a homogeneous system.
Can you recycle copper wire?
Yes! It's a metal, so it can be forged into something new. Of course. Copper wire contains copper. You can use a copper wire stripper to remove the insulation and you get copper core or a copper wire gramulator to make them into small copper granules after grinding and separating the insulation.
Is copper wire a mechanical mixture?
It should be a "pure" substance, but its really an alloy.
What happens when a piece copper wire is heated in the outer region of the flame until its red hot?
The copper wire glows red. Once it cools...the copper reacts with the air to produce copper(II) oxide. This is shown by the black tarnish on the copper wire.

Is the silver speaker wire copper?
Yes; it is tinned copper.
What is the difference between a tinned wire and overcoat wire?
Overcoat: Individual strands of tin copper stranded together & then covered with a tin coating. Topcoat: Bare (untinned) copper wire, stranded, then coated with pure tin.
What metal is used in electric fuse?
Fuses have tinned copper wire* in them.The normal current-carrying capacity of a fuse is determined by the thickness of the wire, as is the final rupture current.Because fuses "melt" like solder, some people think they must contain solder wire, but that is not true.Solder has a lower temperature melting point than either lead or tin but it is not used in fuses because it does not have as good a normal current-carrying capacity as tinned copper.* "Tinned copper wire" means the copper wire has been dipped in a bath of molten tin during its manufacture, leaving a thin coating of tin on the surface of the copper. (The tin is used to help protect the copper from corroding in the atmosphere.)
What is the difference between stranded copper and tinseld copper wire?
bare copper is pure copper, while tinned copper is having light coating of Tin over it, preferred where soldering phenomenon is req. while the bare copper is good conductor then tinned copper.
What kind of copper looks like aluminum?
The kind of copper that looks like aluminum is tinned copper.
Which metal used in fuse wires?
Apparently mainly tinned copper is used in fuse wires. I have heard that there are a lot of other metals used as teh fuse wire though!
I have copper cooking pots that are tin plated on the insides. Where can I get them re-tinned?
first check out www.fantes.com/tinned-metals were they help you if your copper needs retinned then check out a company called Atlantic
How much is tinned copper per pound scrap?
20 pounds
What are the elements in a copper wire?
If the copper wire really is pure copper then the only element in the copper wire is copper (Cu).

Composition of copper wire in generators?
how much copper is in copper wire
What are the mixtures in fuse wire?
tin lead alloybasically tin lead allows are used . but other metals which have low melting point and appropriate resistivity can be used
