What is used to make aeroplanes aluminium or iron?
aluminum
Why do you use aluminuim istead of iron?
They use aluminium instead of iron because aluminium is lighter.
Why aluminium and not iron is used to build aeroplanes?
aluminium is very good at conducting heat but iron no
What properties applies to aluminum and not iron?
Aluminium is paramagnetic, iron is ferromagnetic Aluminium has a low density, iron is more dense Aluminium is not corroded in water, iron is easily corroded The hardness of aluminium is lower The price of aluminium is greater The melting point of iron is significantly greater The thermal and electrical conductivity of aluminium are more important Iron has a greater chemical reactivity ................................................................... etc.
What is the word equation for heating aluminium powder with iron oxide?
well, this is my theory, excuse me if i am not at all correct, but i believe the answer is; Aluminium + Iron Oxide ---> Aluminium Oxide + Iron + heat i really do hope this is correct, please except my apologies if it is not.
Does iron react with aluminum sulfate?
Maybe...iron would replace aluminium to form iron sulphate. iron+aluminum sulfate--->iron sulphate+aluminium.
Why is iron cheaper than aluminium?
Enthalpy of combustion of aluminium is much more intensive than that of iron.
Can iron displace aluminium from aluminium oxide?
The reaction is not possible.
What are the applications of linear expansion?
Invar (a special iron - nickel alloy) is used in pendulam instead of aluminium ,in order to decrease the expansivity.
What is the properties and is uses of copper aluminium iron and steel?
copper aluminium iron and steel is an excellent conductor of electricity and heat is one of the properties of copper aluminium iron and steel and it is used in conducting electricity.
What happen when ferrous sulphate solution is store in aluminium can?
Aluminium is more reactive than iron (Fe) according to the reactivity series of metals. Thus, when Ferrous Sulphate solution is stored in Aluminium can, Aluminium being more reactive, displaces iron from its solution to form Aluminium sulphate and iron. :)
What happens when aluminium reacts with iron oxide and where is this reaction used?
Iron is formed with aluminium oxide. The reaction is used for welding iron (steel) components.
